New song. Low key and really lovely. 



And a new LP out in October. I note Mr Granduciel has copied me on the red ES-330 (I think..) - good taste, that man :)

    I absolutely love WoD - this is good news! The live album that came out not long ago is fantastic.

    Just bought tickets to the Birmingham show. Fully expecting it to be cancelled, but I live in hope until then.

    Cheers for the heads up @stickyfiddle ;;

    Edit: Listened to some of it yesterday evening & enjoyed it. Need to listen to the whole thing, as I was skipping through songs, to see what grabbed me.

    New album is excellent. Not breaking any new ground, but songwriting feels all that much more "crafted" than prior works. Doing some great impressions of a band that existed mostly in the 80s, in all the best ways. WoD's impression of an 80s record is soooo much better than John Mayer's. Anyway, enjoying it very much. Might check out the live show next year.

  • Yeah, it's great. I don't think it will eclipse Lost in the Dream overall, but it's a very good record. 

    Some great Saturday Sessions clips as well - the bass sound on these is just awesome...

  • I'm loving the reports that most of the guitar sounds on this record are a Hotcake wound up with a little bit of flange

    And more importantly, Adam's Reddit AMA suggests there is more music on the way - possibly a deluxe edition
