Sure it’s hip to stream your album these days. However, Under the Radar favorites Plants and Animals are putting a new spin on the trend. The band will be revealing a few songs of sophomore album La La Land at a time, leading up to its April 20th release date.

Check out the (partial) album streaming now at Secret City. It's an effort that Under the Radar's Frank Valish calls, "Utterly thrilling while still maintaining all the muted joy and gentle perfection of Parc Avenue...an album for the ages and Plants and Animals' ultimate piece of work thus far."

Plants and Animals are also launching an extensive tour.
