Melissa Auf der Maur announces BASS WOMB ROOM, a new release that includes her first original music in more than 15 years. Multiple outlets report the project pairs previously unheard ’90s demo material with newer audio elements described as “interludes” or compositions created for a forthcoming photo exhibition. Rolling Stone and Consequence of Sound note that the new tracks are linked to Auf der Maur’s upcoming My ’90s Rock Photographs exhibit, which is also referenced as part of the album’s concept. Stereogum and Spin specify the release details as BASS WOMB ROOM: My ’90s 4-Track Demos x Field Recordings, describing it as a collection of four-track demos alongside field recordings. Alternative Press frames the release as music created to accompany the ’90s photo exhibit, while the other reports emphasize how the demos are “unvaulted” from her archive. Stereogum and Spin also state the planned release date as September 4 via Envision Records.
