Karen O and Danger Mouse announce debut album 'Lux Prima'

After announcing their pairing with the brilliant nine-minute epic 'Lux Prima' at the tail end of last year, Karen O and Danger Mouse have now announced their plans for a new collaborative album, arriving in March.

The new full-length, also called 'Lux Prima', is being previewed by the new track 'Woman', and is set to drop on the 15th March via BMG.

Speaking about their latest single, Karen O said, “Woman came like a bolt out of the blue when we were in the studio. We did a first pass where I was blurting unintelligible words and Danger Mouse and I were like, ‘Dang! That was intense.’ The atmosphere was volatile with it being just after the election. A lot of people felt helpless like you do when you’re a scared kid looking for assurance that everything is gonna be alright. I like to write songs that anyone can relate to but this one felt especially for the inner child in me that needed the bullies out there to know you don’t f*ck with me. I’m a woman now and I’ll protect that inner girl in me from hell and high water.”

Have a listen to 'Woman' in the player and see the album's full tracklisting below.
