Zola Jesus signs to Mute for album Taiga, streams new track "Dangerous Days"
Last week, Zola Jesus teased her new album Taiga. Now, she’s revealed more details about the release.
Nika Roza Danilova has signed to Mute Records for the follow-up to last year’s Versions and 2011 LP Conatus. It’ll be released on 6 October and has been preceded by lead single “Dangerous Days”, airing beneath.
“Taiga is the Russian name for the boreal forest,” Danilova said of the album’s title. “For me it feels very alive… very expansive. It represents a feral, untapped world that could happily exist without us. There are taiga forests in Northern Wisconsin where I was raised, and also in Russia where my ancestors are from, so it also feels very native… For me, it feels like my true debut, because it is the first time I have felt so open and liberated.”
