Crush Songs (Ltd Edition Blue Coloured LP w/36 Page Booklet)

Yeah Yeah Yeahs front woman Karen O has announced her first solo album, Crush Songs, via Julian Casablancas' label Cult.

Karen O says of Crush Songs, "When I was 27 I crushed a lot. I wasn't sure I'd ever fall in love again. These songs were written and recorded around that time. They are the soundtrack to what was an ever continuing love crusade. I hope they keep you company on yours."

Though Crush Songs is her first solo album, Karen O has stayed busy outside Yeah Yeah Yeahs. Most recently, she received an Oscar nomination for "The Moon Song", which was co-written with Spike Jonze for Jonze's Her. She also composed the soundtrack for Jonze's Where the Wild Things Are, which was credited to Karen O and the Kids.
