What a fuckin' wave! Joanna Newsom's astounding and enriching new dual LP (and CD! And CS!) was finally unleashed to the world last Friday, and this sweet beast cannot be tamed - Divers ripples turned tidal leading up to and through its release! So simply enjoy the ride, why don't you? We're already fully on board, wearing floaties with a cocktail in our finest evening attire, and from our view, more succulent surprises lie straight ahead! Finally, after two long weeks of knowing a new Joanna Newsom vid existed that was, for many, just out of reach, the Paul Thomas Anderson-directed video for the song, "Divers," is available for all! Once exclusively found within the dark confines of movie theaters across the USA and Europe, homebodies the world over can now repeatedly revel in all the splendor and wonder provided by Joanna and PTA's collaborative efforts (within the walls of Divers cover artist Kim Keever's studio, no less). What's next, Divers-heads? North American, European, (and now) Australian tour dates are in. Will Divers' momentum alter the Earth's axis? Nevermind all that - keep gazing forward into the screen, eyes affixed to the video for "Divers."
