Leslie Feist, the Canadian whom we have grown to love during the years is releasing her fourth album, Metals.
The release is set to October 4th, on Universal / Polydor in europe.
Her last album, The Reminder, was one of 2007′ best albums, and still holds a massive place in our world of great music. When James Blake covered her Limit To Your Love, we picked up the album again. This is the real deal.
I am sure that Feist will let no one down with her new stuff. Just listen to this, and you will be as assured as I am.
