Megafaun releasing self-titled album in September

Former bandmates of Justin Vernon, Megafaun still remain closely affiliated with Bon Iver, whether it is through touring or live collaboration. Vernon has even said he learned how to write songs through his time with his old band.

So, it is almost fitting that in this time of inescapable Bon Iver-talk that Megafaun has announced their third full-length album and follow-up to last year’s mini-album Heretofore. Self-titled Megafaun, the record is “said to feature the band at their most ambitious as they blend styles including stripped-down rock, instrumental free jazz, and melancholy blues.”

Check out a teaser to the album below and look out for Megafaun’s Megafaun on September 20th.
