Joanna Newsom is streaming her first studio record in five years in full ahead of its release on Friday.
In our review of Newsom's Divers, we say that "just like that, 52 minutes will have flown by and you, inevitably, find yourself going straight back to the beginning, to that mourning dove’s preface, willing yourself to make the time to sit through the whole thing again. And again."
Divers is released 23 October by Drag City. It follows 2010's Have One On Me.
Stream the record in full via NPR below.
