Released back in May, Jenny Hval's <i>Innocence is Kinky</i>, endures as one of my favorite records of 2013. I've played it countless times, and, in a few days, when Hval takes the stage at NYC's <a href="http://www.mercuryloungenyc.com/event/294937-jenny-hval-new-york">Mercury Lounge</a>, I'll finally have the chance to see and hear the songs performed live.
</p><p>
It's happening on a Tuesday night. And it's the late show. And I'm old. But I'm still going. So, you know that I consider this one important. (Wednesday is going to be rough.)
</p><p>
Maybe I'll see you there. For now, we can also enjoy Hval's quiet, lovely cover of Paul Simon's typically bouncy tune, "The Cool, Cool River."
</p><p>
And, if you haven't already seen it, here's the video for "Innocence is Kinky," directed by the awesomely talented <a href="http://ziaanger.com/">Zia Anger</a>, who's also worked with Julianna Barwick, Angel Olsen, and other similarly wonderful artists. This video may not be safe for work. If you're offended by or uninterested in nudity, sexual content, strong language, latex, bubblegum, and/or the collision of pleasure and pain, you may want to avoid watching this video.

If you like nudity, sexual content, strong language, latex, bubblegum, and/or the collision of pleasure and pain, maybe I'll see you at the Mercury Lounge on Tuesday night.
</p><p>
