CocoRosie Inks Sub Pop Deal

Don't worry, the facial hair ain't real, folks...

By Fred Mills

Is May here yet? Mark your calendars for May 11: that's when the sibling indiepop chanteuses known as CocoRosie will issue their Sub Pop debut. Titled Grey Oceans, it wil be their fourth overall, following three acclaimed releases on Touch & Go, 2004's La Maison de Mon Rêve, 2005's Noah's Ark, and 2007's Adventures of Ghosthorse and Stillborn.

Three years between albums is an eternity in rock years, however, so here's hoping fans haven't forgotten Sierra and Bianca's lush-yet-edgy song stylings. Tracklisting to the new one is below.

According to Sub Pop, "The nomadic duo (currently and temporarily residing in New Mexico) spent much of 2008 writing and recording in Buenos Aires, Melbourne, Berlin, New York, and  Paris, finding amazing and diverse musicians to collaborate along the way."

As usual, the sisters have something going on with the faux-facial hair thing - check the album art image above, along with the alternative version below.
