Last year, a new and mysterious psychedelic rock project called Unknown Mortal Orchestra won the Taite Music Prize, New Zealand’s annual award for the best album of the year, for their self-titled debut.
Not keen to rest on their laurels for too long, the Auckland-by-way-of-Portland group has signed to American indie label Jagjaguwar to release the sophomore full-length II. The album officially drops on February 5 but Rdio listeners are enjoying an exclusive early preview of II right now.
