The album will be released as a double LP, CD and digital album by Matador Records on September 16.
Body/Head began as a largely instrumental project after Gordon announced her separation from Thurston Moore in late 2011.

Glastonbury will become the first UK festival with its own dedicated 4G network, it has been confirmed.
The festival has struck a deal with mobile service provider EE which will give fans attending the festival fast mobile internet speeds and allow for even quicker photo and video upload times. There will also be an official Glastonbury festival app, which will give festival goers updates from around the site and news alerts. Additionally, two large recharge tents will be built onsite with users of any mobile network able to charge their phones in between watching bands.
The unveiling of Bowie's latest video earlier today prompted me to dig out this piece I originally wrote for our Bowie Ultimate Music Guide, about Bowie on film...
David Bowie has finally broken his silence on his comeback album The Next Day.
