Leonard Cohen Introduces New Album ‘You Want It Darker’

It's due on October 21st...

Leonard Cohen will release his new studio album 'You Want It Darker' on October 21st.

The legendary songwriter announces the release on his 82nd birthday, and it's one that makes full use of that experience.

In a press quote Leonard Cohen explains: “As I grew older, I understood that instructions came with this voice. What were these instructions? The instructions were never to lament casually. And if one is to express the great inevitable defeat that awaits us all, it must be done within the strict confines of dignity and beauty.”

The title track is available right now as a single – grab it HERE.

'You Want It Darker' will be released on October 21st.
