Amanda Palmer announces new album 'There Will Be No Intermission'

Despite having a very productive 2017, which saw her release the two records 'I Can Spin a Rainbow' and remix collection 'Piano Is Evil', Amanda Palmer has been fairly quite so far this year but has now announced her plans to return next year with a new studio LP.

The new full-length 'There Will Be No Intermission' will become her first solo effort of original material since the 2012 release 'Theatre Is Evil', is being previewed by the new single 'Drowning In The Sound', and is due to arrive on the 8th March.

Speaking about the new release, the frontwoman said, "I've never been nervous about releasing a record before, but this one is different. The rise of global facism alongside the spreading fire of #MeToo has forged a louder megaphone for all women, and we're all seeing that radical truth is infectious. I feel more urgency than ever to share the naked truth of my experiences. The kind of stories that I’m sharing on this record—abortion, miscarriage, cancer, grief, the darker sides of parenthood—have been therapeutic and frightening to write. But every time I play them for my friends and fans, the nodding heads of empathy have lit a fire under my ass to record and release them.”
