Darren by Allo Darlin'
The "Darren" picture disc is the first new material from Allo Darlin' since their universally acclaimed debut album was released in June 2010.
In the spirit of "Henry Rollins Don't Dance", the band wanted to release something special on vinyl. This record is not being promoted anywhere and will only be available via our website or at our shows.
Side A is a song called "Darren". It's about listening to records when you're embarking on a new romance.
Side B is a song called "Wu Tang Clan". It was written by Darren Hayman and John Morrison when they were known as The French. This song is also about listening to records.
This record is officially sanctioned by Darren Hayman. Of course.
