STREAM ANGEL OLSEN'S NEW ALBUM, BURN YOUR FIRE FOR NO WITNESS, OUT FEB. 18 ON JAGJAGUWAR
US TOUR KICKS OFF NEXT WEEK!
"Angel Olsen has made an unforgettable and entrancing record. Burn Your Fire for No Witness is the musical equivalent of a deep, questioning stare from a lover, and what draws me to her voice is its peaceful, subtle touch. It has me leaning in to listen." - Bob Boilen,NPR Music
Leading up to the release of Burn Your Fire for No Witness (out Feb. 18 on Jagjaguwar),Angel Olsen shared the fantastic singles, "Forgiven/Forgotten" and "Hi-Five," and teased intimate solo versions of previously unreleased tracks "Unf**ktheworld," "Iota," "Enemy," and "White Fire," for her NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert. Starting today, NPR Music andCBC are streaming Burn Your Fire for No Witness in full for a week leading up to the release date. This "collection of songs, grown in a year of heartbreak, travel, and transformation," present a more self-assured Olsen. Here, she sings with full-throated exultation, admonition, and bold, expressive melody. Also, with the help of producer John Congleton, her music now crackles with a churning, rumbling low end and a brighter energy. Pitchfork, Rolling Stone, The Wall Street Journal, Entertainment Weekly, SPIN, The FADER, and many more are singing Olsen's praises. As a musician known for delivering hypnotic performances and leaving audiences speechless, Olsen will take Burn Your Fire for No Witness on the road beginning next week through May.

"Why She'll Be Big: 'Forgiven/Forgotten,' the song you can hear now from Olsen's second album, Burn Your Fire for No Witness, will singe anyone expecting the haunted-coffeehouse strumming she has become cultishly known for. But the rest of Burn blearily combines raw rock and harrowing folk, for a captivating listen that will be crucial to hear live . . . "
-- Entertainment Weekly [14 Rising Stars to Watch In 2014]
"While the arrangements are more muscular than before, her high-arching voice remains unobstructed and completely devastating."
-- SPIN [50 Albums You Gotta Hear in 2014]
"On 'Forgiven/Forgotten' the explosive lead-off single from her second album, Burn Your Fire for No Witness, the instruments around her finally match the intensity of her voice."
-- Pitchfork [Best New Track]
"Her new album doesn't come out till February, but it's an early frontrunner for one of Bob Boilen's favorites in 2014."
-- NPR Music's "All Songs Considered"
"Of all the musicians releasing new albums early this year, Angel Olsen is one who merits particular attention."
-- The Wall Street Journal
"here's second taste 'Hi-Five,' an equally expansive track that chugs and howls, its pounded piano and thwacking kick drums still no match for Olsen's ferocity as she blows up a partnership that leaves something to be desired."
-- The FADER
