Popular Problems now playing in full online

With its release - next Monday, September 22 - nearing, Leonard Cohen's new album, Popular Problems, is now streaming in full over at NPR - listen here. As The Guardian point out, the album is the work of Cohen collaborating with his co-songwriter Patrick Leonard on eight of the record's nine songs, with the Cohen-only 'Born In Chains' the sole moment he remains less sure of: "I've rewritten it many times to accommodate a change in my theological position."

Stay tuned for a Len-themed feature on the Quietus in the near future.
