Laetitia Sadier, sometime chanteuse with the gorgeous sounding Stereolab (is it really twenty years since their first album?) will be returning in July with her second solo album Silencio. This is out on Drag City on July 23.

This is the first track to do the rounds, entitled ‘Find Me The Pulse Of The Universe’. According to the press release it’s ‘a song about recognizing the world of possibilities (as one can with mathematics,) and thinking in an open-ended, creative way to solve some of the confusion surrounding us. “Find Me The Pulse of the Universe” shows the singularity of Laetitia – her calm and direct voice, the one that reaches you and wraps you up each time you hear it, sharing her confident and honest ideas.’

The tracklisting is as follows:

The Rule of the Game
Find Me the Pulse of the Universe
Silent Spot
Auscultation to the Nation
There is a Price to Pay for Freedom (and it isn’t Security)
Moi Sans Zach
Between Earth and Heaven
