Start your week off right by heading over to NPR Music, where First Listen is previewing The Clientele’s Music for the Age of Miracles in its entirety, ahead of its release on Friday (coincidentally, the first day of autumn). Of the London group’s first new album in seven years, NPR says it is “perhaps their most musically ambitious album to date. Music for the Age of Miracles is full of elegant, occasionally even majestic orchestrations and unexpected melodic twists that slip by subtly enough to keep from disturbing the quiet grace that is a Clientele signature.”
