Got Keen? Open it in the appAbout
Know that feeling when you sit before a canvas in a gallery? You start noticing unseen layers, or confronting something unexpected in yourself.
That's the Shut Up and Listen Club. A communal room where you can experience an album from start to finish with no phones and no talking.
Each session features one secret album, chosen purely for artistic weight, craft and power. You might know every lyric by heart, or you might never have heard a single note.
About November's secret album: A raw masterwork cut from voice notes, spoken-word poetry and euphoric rave energy. Written through profound grief, fierce loyalty, and working-class youth, it's a devastating piece of art that demands presence.
Past sessions have included Radiohead, Rosalía, Pink Floyd, Fela Kuti, Massive Attack, David Bowie, Paul Simon, Spiritualized and Lana Del Rey.
