CD / 2XLP PRE-ORDER AVAILABLE NOW

Today NPR's First Listen has offered up an advance play of contemplative indie rockers Typhoon's forthcoming new album Offerings which will be released January 12th via Roll Call Records.

"The fourth album Offerings [is] the most ominous and sonically dramatic record from Typhoon," shares NPR's Bob Boilen. "This album of brilliant storytelling, clocking in at almost 2300 words, is worth dissecting and poring over. Unlike previous music from Typhoon, where roughly a dozen musicians normally includes big and uplifting brass, this one is more guitar-centric, with dark string arrangements. After listening to it, I texted my 

All Songs Considered co-host Robin Hilton the following: "good lord this Typhoon album is brilliant ... haven't cried listening to a record since [Sufjan Stevens'] 

Carrie And Lowell." Offerings is truly a wise and ruminative record."

The band has already released two singles from the album - "Rorschach" and "Darker". Watch the video for "Rorschach" here and listen to "Darker" here.

Visit the band's store to pre-order the album in CD (signed for pre-orders), MP3 or vinyl format. The limited-edition Blood-Red Offerings vinyl (1,000) have already sold out. 

Typhoon is gearing up for their tour in North America and Europe in support of the album, starting January 10th.
