Why? announce new album, The Well I Fell Into
Why? have announced their first new album in five years. The group, helmed by Yoni Wolf, will release The Well I Fell Into on August 2, via Waterlines, which was founded and run by Wolf. Hear new single “The Letters Etc.” below and check out Why?’s upcoming tour dates.
“This song was partially written for a year or two but the words to finish it just wouldn’t come until some further life experiences led it into its current incarnation,” Wolf said in a statement. “Though potentially filled with paranoid conjecture, it is also a song of acceptance, with only best wishes upon embarking on a difficult long-term estrangement. T’ruah. Love and let live.”
Why?’s 2008 album Alopecia is featured on our list of the 100 Best Indie Rock Albums of the ’00s.
