Blonde Redhead return with Sit Down for Dinner, their first album in nine years and debut for section1. Its title a nod to the often-sacred communal ritual of sharing a meal with those you love, this immersive, meticulously crafted album appropriately serves an expression of persistent togetherness, a testament to the unique internal logic Blonde Redhead have refined over their three-decade existence.
Understated yet visceral melodies charge each song, creating a foil to lyrics about
the inescapable struggles of adulthood: communication breakdown in enduring
relationships, wondering which way to turn, holding onto your dreams. Ultimately,
Sit Down for Dinner lands as perhaps the strongest record in catalog that’s already
as illustrious as it is varied.
Pitchfork, 7.5 - “On their first album in nearly a decade, and following a
wave of viral resurgence, the NYC avant-rock vets return with their
warmest, most welcoming music yet.”
Glide Magazine - “Blonde Redhead deconstructed their musical perception to create their most sprawling album to date, an album loaded with tense songs that seemingly melt into a puddle of otherworldly textures.”
Qobuz - “Nearly 30 years into a career that's moved on and off the fringes
of the indie underground, Blonde Redhead continues to delight with their
thoughtful approach to highly textured melodic pop”
