Robert Plant’s new album, lullaby and… The Ceaseless Roar, is out today, September 9 (Nonesuch/Warner Bros. Records). Produced by Plant, the album is his label debut and features 11 new recordings, nine of which are original songs written by Plant with his band, The Sensational Space Shifters. The video for the first single “Rainbow,” was premiered earlier today via The Colbert Report.

lullaby and…The Ceaseless Roar is receiving rave reviews with the NY Times noting that Plant “sings in an otherworldly voice: sustained, androgynous, balanced between serenity and ache. The album begins with very different versions of “Little Maggie,” an old-timey Appalachian song about unrequited love and separation…In between are songs by Mr. Plant that ponder earthly and transcendent love.” Mojo, in its four out of 5-star review called it “astonishing.”
