Full tracklisting confirmed plus European tour dates

As already announced, Atlas Sound’s‘Let The Blind Lead Those Who Can See But Cannot Feel’ is finally getting a release outside North America through us.
For the uninitiated, Atlas Sound is the solo project of Deerhunter frontman / provocateur Bradford Cox and since the record’s original release in the States (out on Kranky) back in February, has been garnering much praise like the choice quotes below...
"Bradford Cox's solo debut shows one genius in his bedroom can produce a sound as big and weird as the galaxy. Drenched in colour, it's shoe gaze pop of the highest order.”
Dazed & Confused
“As with each of Cox's projects, Let the Blind… works best as a swirling, disorienting whole, organizing traditionally abstract styles like graphic-design elements within his unifying vision until they communicate like good pop.”
Pitchfork (8.6)
Our version is being released on May 5th and differs from the US release by having a second disc of bonus material added and different artwork courtesy of our long time collaborators, v23.
As already premiered on Pitchfork earlier today, here is Another Bedroom (the first track from the second disc) for you to enjoy -
