February 20th 2012 (Feb 21 U.S.) will see the release of the brand new album from Michael Hadreas, aka Perfume Genius, “Put Your Back N 2 It”.
Where “Learning” was stark and confessional however, “Put Your Back N 2 It” is lush and universal, and sees an expansion of both his thematic and sonic palette, playing as a broad meditation on intimacy, power, family, secrecy and hope, not just through his impressionistic lyrics, but through the music itself as well. Check out the taster track “All Waters” here and see for yourself. Perfume Genius will also be heading over to the UK for a clutch of highly anticipated live dates in the spring.
1. AWOL Marine
2. Normal Song
3. No Tear
4. 17
5. Take Me Home
6. Dirge
7. Dark Parts
8. All Waters
9. Hood
10. Put Your Back N 2 It
11. Floating Spit
12. Sister Song
