JENNY HVAL streams new album 'Blood Bitch' in full online now! LP due Sept 30th!


Via Sacred Bones Records! UK tour this October! Ahead of the release on Sept 30th, Norway's Jenny Hval is making her distinguishable mark with new album 'Blood Bitch'.


"Hval's approach has always been equal parts instinctive, intellectual and whimsical, but Blood Bitch confirms her singular methodology is now at its most surgically precise and bold. In realising her uncontainable ambitions, one might even suggest it represents Hval's coming of age." - 8/10 Uncut


“It’s an amalgamation of past, present and future, and a dazzling realisation of self from one of the most thought-provoking songwriters today” 7/10 - Crack


“Hval’s voice and reflections are powerful as ever; Blood Bitch is a curious study of a restless musician fighting to keep her insecurities at bay. An understated but intriguing album by a perpetually fascinating artist.” - 4* The Skinny


"The Norwegian artist alternatively blasts and hypnotises the world with power, beauty, femininity and devil-may-care creative force little seen on so-so pop. There is so much to love and turn up on this record; she's a one off wonder" - Monocle


"Disquieting, disquisition concerning horror films and menstruation from Norway's singular aural sculptor" - 4* MOJO


Norway’s Jenny Hval is making her distinguishable mark with new album Blood Bitch, out September 30th via Sacred Bones, and an equally fascinating live show. Over the course of her varied career, Hval has gained increasing recognition and praise for her unparalleled voice and delivery, and non-traditional arrangements, all of which is peaking with Blood Bitch, Hval’s most fictional yet, personal album. As described by Hval, it’s “an investigation of blood. Blood that is shed naturally. The white and red toilet roll chain which ties together the virgins, the whores, the mothers, the witches, the dreamers, and the lovers.”
 
Leading into its release, Hval has shared singles 'Female Vampire,' 'Conceptual Romance,' and most recently 'Period Piecevia Adult Swim’s Singles seriesAnd now NPR Music’s 'First Listen' presents Blood Bitch in its entirety. Listen below, and be sure to keep an eye out for Hval on the cover of this month’s The Wire magazine.
