Grouper To Release Two New Albums In April

12:32 p.m. · January 20, 2011 · by Andrew Winistorfer

Grouper, the one-woman loop and guitar band of Liz Harris, has had its profile raised considerably in the last two years, largely thanks to Animal Collective picking the band to open its Merriweather Post Pavilion tour. Harris was touring on old material though; 2008's Dragging a Dead Deer Up a Hill. That changes in April, when she releases a pair of albums she's been working on since 2007: together they're called A I A, but separately, they'll be called Dream Loss and Alien Observer. They'll be out sometime in April, self-released by Harris. Here's the track list:

Dream Loss:

(first heart tone)

01 Dragging the Streets

02 I Saw a Ray

03 Soul Eraser

04 Atone

05 No Other

06 Wind Return

07 A Lie

Alien Observer:

01 Moon Is Sharp

02 Alien Observer

03 Vapor Trails

04 She Loves Me That Way (second heart tone)

05 Mary, on the Wall

06 Come Softly
