Two Suns
}} ''Two Suns'' is the second studio album by English recording artist Bat for Lashes, released on 3 April 2009 by The Echo Label and Parlophone. The album was produced by Khan herself and David Kosten (who also worked on her debut album ''Fur and Gold''), and features collaborations with members of Yeasayer and Scott Walker. ''Two Suns'' was recorded in segments in California, New York City, London, Brighton and Wales.〔 Upon its release, ''Two Suns'' was met with positive reviews from most critics. Additionally, it was shortlisted for the Mercury Prize in 2009, Khan's second nomination after ''Fur and Gold'' in 2007. On 31 July 2009, ''Two Suns'' was certified gold by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI), for shipments of 100,000 copies in the United Kingdom. ==Concept== According to the accompanying press release, ''Two Suns'' is "a record of modern-day fables exploring dualities on a number of levels—two lovers, two planets, two sides of a personality", bringing reflection about "the philosophy of the self and duality, examining the need for both chaos and balance, for both love and pain, in addition to touching on metaphysical ideas concerning the connections between all existence." In ''Two Suns'', Khan also presents an alter ego named Pearl, described by the press release as "a destructive, self-absorbed, blonde, femme fatale of a persona who acts as a direct foil to Khan's more mystical, desert-born spiritual self."〔
