There is so much to digest in this tale of a song. Only Dylan could weave something like this. It's haunting and delicate.

This time, Amazon seems to be the only place from which you can download a bona fide file (as opposed to just streaming). Haven't heard it yet so Don't ask me nothin' about nothin' / I just might tell you the truth!

Well fuck!! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=pgEP8teNXwY

If you ask me, it has the same flavour of Murder Most Foul. He's fuckin' releasing an album soon, and it is going to be epic. Right?

I dunno. Maybe he's just making ends meet until the zombie apocalypse dies down.

[Skuj]

The Trumpie Apocalypse will always be with us.

Oh shit....sorry....you wrote "zombie".

Isn't it fantastic, that in 2020, Mr soon-to-be-80-Dylan is releasing songs that we care about? Macca, Stones, Moodies, etc etc just cannot compete. Dylan gave up on trying to recreate Blonde On Blonde or Blood On The Tracks decades ago. He just does what he does, naturally, in the time that he finds himself in. And because of that acceptance, embracing, reality....the results are compelling. I'm thrilled. I'm dreaming of an album with these two recent songs on it.

[Savage Clone]

I guess there must be a guest vocalist on this one or something

[The Soup Nazi]

Not that anyone should give a crap, but "Murder Most Foul" became Bob's first Nº 1 Billboard Chart song. Ever. Fifty-eight freakin' years after "Mixed-Up Confusion".

I bet you one thing: while I don't know what Dotard J Turd listens to (other than Faux News), I'm positive that he didn't buy the song, but Barack Obama did.

Bob Dylan, The Busiest Man In Quarantine, Announces New Album, Drops New Song

Do you know a 78 year old who is producing more quarantine content than Bob Dylan? At midnight on Friday, May 8, Dylan announced on Twitter that his forthcoming album Rough and Rowdy Days will be released on June 19. Dylan’s announcement of a new album comes after the release his first number one single (still an insane thing to type), “Murder Most Foul,” in March, and his song “I Contain Multitudes” in April. Not only did Dylan announce his new album, but he also dropped a new song, “False Prophet.” Rough and Rowdy Days will follow up Dylan’s 2017 album of standards, Triplicate, and will be Dylan’s first album of original material in 8 years, since the release of 2012’s Tempest. Ok, so far under quarantine the 78-year-old Dylan has released three new songs, hit number one on the Billboard charts, and has promised us an album of new music, and all I’ve done is start watching The Sopranos (that’s a lie, I haven’t even done that yet. It just seems so exhausting).

And here's the new song:

False Prophet

[Skuj]

Fuck YES.

[Skuj]

Apple/wiki gives this tracklist with several unknown titles. It makes me happy that it is a 70min motherfucker, ending with That Song.

1. "I Contain Multitudes" 4:36
2. "False Prophet" 6:00
3. Untitled 6:41
4. Untitled 6:32
5. Untitled 4:12
6. Untitled 4:13
7. Untitled 4:29
8. Untitled 7:22
9. Untitled 9:34
10. "Murder Most Foul" 16:54
Total length: 70:33

It's "Rough And Rowdy WAYS", Chris Murphy. It says so right there on the artwork!

Anyway, formidable news, but June 19... We'll all be zombies by then.

So happy about this. If the tracks so far are anything to go by this is going to be special.

[Skuj]

If you are an old fashioned CD person like me, why the fuck is this going to be a 2CD set?

Yeah, False Prophet is fucking good.

Damn, Dylan has aged so well. WAIT...HEAR ME OUT, hahaha. I mean, sure his voice is beat up and ravaged, but he makes it work so well for the songs. It's perfection!! And his lyrics are still compelling. I'm wondering if this new stuff isn't even better than the 2001-2012 albums.

I'm still a sucker for Time Out Of Mind (1997). That one is the soundtrack to my current life.

Unless the second disc is a bonus kinda dealie-o (very doubtful; it would have been marketed as a deluxe edition), it's likely a way of saying, "This is a double album, GET IT?" It's not unheard of at all - Wilco's Being There fits on one CD, but Jeff Tweedy fought to present it as a double at the price of a single disc, and the band took a financial hit because of it. (Warners went, OK, the difference comes out of your pockets, artists without whom we wouldn't have shit). And you can go back further to, say, Metal Box: it could have been a double LP all along (once they ran out of film canisters, that's what it became, as Second Edition), but PiL wanted the three thick 45-rpm 12"s to bass your face in.

That one's always the soundtrack to my life. Even when I'm not listening to it. Now, you're trolling for a Bitchen Bob Boot, arentcha. ARENTCHA? Well you're in luck, little man, for I present you...
