Description
Recorded with friends and longtime cohorts The Venus Three – Peter Buck (guitar) and R.E.M. mainstays Scott McCaughey (bass, vocals) and Bill Rieflin (drums). 'Goodnight Oslo' is Robyn's first album in three years. It follows previous Venus 3 collaborations 'Ole! Tarantula' (2006) and the 'Sex, Food, Death and Tarantulas EP' (2007). Boasting ten new songs, 'Goodnight Oslo' features 'Up To Our Nex', a track written for Jonathan Demme's acclaimed new film 'Rachel Getting Married' starring Anne Hathaway.
"The songs on Goodnight Oslo are a requiem for the Smoke Age, and in part about breaking out of predictable cycles. But I'm not in recovery or anything physical. [The title track is about] an evening in Norway 25 years ago, refracted through time."
Tracks:
What You Is / Your Head Here / Saturday Groovers / I'm Falling / Hurry For The Sky / 16 Years / Up To Our Nex / Intricate Thing / TLC / Goodnight Oslo
