Jenny Lewis - Acid TongueJenny Lewis’ second album, titled Acid Tongue, is due to drop from Warner Bros. on September 20th, and NPR is streaming the title track: click here and scroll down a little. Pitchfork also has the track listing and some tour dates in a post from a month ago, which I missed due to not having internet at the time.

I’m not sure I’m a huge fan of all the guest performers due to show up on the album (this song has Johnathan Rice and The Black Crowes’ Chris Robinson on it, and honestly I find them more distracting than useful, but maybe on subsequent listens I’ll change my mind), but I’m pretty much just ecstatic to have something new from Jenny, whether it’s with Rilo Kiley or not. Let’s hope she can navigate the big label tendency toward over-production a little better than the band did with Under the Blacklight.
