New album - Junior

Press release details!

hmmm. sounds cool. i hope it sounds good!

!!!!!

If the songs she's been playing live of late (from the new record) are anything to go by, it should be beyond great!

meh

rather, i feel the songs she played in williamsburg were cool, but didn't really click with me. that's all. it'll be a great record, of course. i don't know if i'll be into it though. still absolutely admire her work and musicianship and honesty.

Whoa, that cover art is pretty sweet.

Cool cover...
have you seen the press kit on that site... that pdf file..??
It's full of interviews, pics and reviews

An exclusive song from the new album

Honestly, I've lost track of how many times I've listened to "Falling day" so far! It's amazing

I love it!

Wonderful!

i don't know what to think of this exactly. i half like it, half don't. i'm not sure yet! perhaps it will grow on me.

right now i don't really like the cover, but i don't judge these things before i actually have it in my hands, it always looks different and most of the time better

the cover is ok...doesn't really scream kaki to me, but w/e. and i'm w/ eric on falling day...

i really wanted to hold back and not say anything until the record comes out. i don't want to seem like im being mean or anything but i have to say something about the new material that she's shown us. i said this to a friend on facebook yesterday: i heard it just now, and i have very mixed feelings about it. kinda ambivalent. it's definitely different, not bad, but this new record is not as compositionally intriguing as say something like 'doing the wrong thing' or 'can anyone who has heard this music really be a bad person?'. I think her straightforward songs sell her short of some things she has such a knack for. well, i'll wait for the new record to finally see what i think of it.

^^ Dude, you don't seem like yr "being mean"
you seem like you're "having a personal opinion"...which is totally cool!

What the hell kind of fanbase would we be if we had no objectivity?

i feel the same way, eric...i hate saying that i dislike a kaki king song, but i mean, honestly, sunnyside...not really a good song. i really want 'junior' to be good, but i feel like it might be a disappointment. kind of like 'sainthood'....but anyway, i'm still excited that she's making new stuff

Sometimes the correlation between Kaki & Tegan and Sara fans amuses me so! All my friends who like new Kaki material, also happened to really liked Sainthood!
Just something I was thinking about

Overall, I think the new album sound sounds like a combination of the last two releases (Dreaming of revenge & Mexican teenagers)

Ooooo, I am totally liking "Falling Day"!

But yeah, I understand why people may be ambivalent about it. It's alright, dudes, don't feel bad!

Anyway, can't wait to hear the whole album!

Oh, and the album comes just in time for my birthday! I'm hoping to see her here in Brooklyn in April as well.

So, I'm a sucker for limited edition album releases.
Checking out a Japanese music store online I found.
Kaki King - Junior [CD+DVD]
Album release from Kaki King. Includes a bonus DVD featuring her performance footage in Toronto.
Bonus Track: one Japan edition bonus track

can you post a link to the site?

yeah, where did you find that?
i love limited editions!

lol, sorry! (I'm a right dipshit, I thought i'd put a link in the album title)

Junior [CD+DVD]

They have a couple of older albums, but I think most are out of print.

cool i so want that
