Danny Brown's New Album Has a Title
It is named after a Joy Division song.
It’s been a long time coming but the release of Danny Brown‘s long-awaited followup to his 2013 LP Old is coming. The Detroit native took to Twitter to share the title of the project, which is a reference to Joy Division’s same-titled song “Atrocity Exhibition.” The origin of the line can be traced back to a book by English author J.G. Ballard. In a conversation with Beats 1-host Zane Lowe, Danny revealed that the LP is largely influenced by Talking Heads.
