Washed Out debut album - July 12th

[u2popmofo]

I know there are a number of other Washed Out fans, so figured it was worthy of a thread. They (he) signed to Sub Pop, and their (his) debut album will be out July 12th. Album's name is 'Within and Without'.

Tracklist:

Within and Without:

01. Eyes Be Closed
02. Echoes
03. Amor Fati
04. Soft
05. Far Away
06. Before
07. You and I
08. Within and Without
09. A Dedication

If you don't already have it, buy the EP, "Life of Leisure". It's very nice.

Thanks for the heads-up. I had a bit of a revelatory moment with this artist/group on account of the use of "Feel It All Around" in Portlandia. My girlfriend commented that she liked it, and I told her that I could probably find it in ten minutes. I then looked like a fool, as it evaded me for months - until, that is, it popped up on Axver's DI list.

I love that EP. That 1Bl00d character informed me of these guys back when she actually posted on this forum instead of only smoking illegal drugs with her hippie friends all the time.

So very excited about this. My only trepidation is that I tend to enjoy their music in smaller doses, so a full album might be slightly dull. Then again, it's a chillwave album, so it's probably only going to be 35 minutes anyway. I don't know what I'm talking about. Good band.

Haha. It is only 3 songs longer than the EP, so that could very possibly happen.

Excellent news!

Also, in terms of my posting, I haven't exactly been excited by much other than hip-hop for the past several months, and when I do try to talk about that here, there are mayyyyybe three people who will respond. So, it's more about that, not me smoking mas (medicinal) drogas with my friends (cause I do that all the time, whether or not I'm posting here).

This made me do a so-called "lol" at work.

Glad I could amuse you whilst you work.

 

[No spoken words]

I'm not amused.

Do I like chillwave? I don't even know.

Your hatred of hippies knows no bounds.

I think you might. Sort of a modern electronicy attempt at dreampop.

Try these songs on:

YouTube - Washed Out - "Hold Out" Official Music Video

YouTube - Washed Out - Feel It All Around (High Definition Video)

No worries if you hate it and want to kill everyone because of it. Well, no worries for those of us not in California at least.

Thanks for posting, Scumbo.

That shit will be great to listen to when I go down to the ocean. Perfect!

until, that is, it popped up on Axver's DI list.

Which he pilfered from my previous DI list, the bastard. For what it's worth, it's still totes one of my favorite songs of the past few years.

Anyfart, awesome news. This will be the tits.

 

[Imperor]

Obligatory Childish Gambino reference.

 

[Axver]

I'd been wondering if he was ever going to put out a full album. Sweet. Glad that You And I is in the tracklist too.

Good news. I've only heard Feel it All Around (I was kinda hoping it'd be on the album ) but I fucking love that song so I'll be all over this.

That was an awesome list, btdub. It was lacking in THE BIEB! but worked in a bit of L!o!s! C!a!m!p!e!s!i!n!o!s!, so it was all good.

 

[phanan]

I'm only familiar with Feel It All Around and Get Up thanks to DI, but I liked what I heard.

 

[The Sad Punk]

Excellent news. Can't fucking wait. I still listen to tracks from Life of Leisure (fuck abbreviating that) all the time.

Here's the album cover.

 

[PhilsFan]

That shit doesn't fly in Utah.

 

[onebloodonelife]

Damn, Scumbo beat me to it.


I like the cover a lot, actually.

 

[u2popmofo]

I think it's pretty lame. Mostly how they have the band lame written, as I'm sure I won't be the last to see the unintended humorous side of it mixed with the album cover photo.

 

[onebloodonelife]

Nah, I'm pretty sure that was intentional...slightly pornographic cover with "within and without OUT" over top? I have a hard time believing it was on accident.

 

[u2popmofo]

I more meant the "WAS HED OUT" thing, as it seems really silly.

 

[Danny Boy]

Nah, I'm pretty sure that was intentional...slightly pornographic cover with "within and without OUT" over top? I have a hard time believing it was on accident.

I think he was referring to WAS. HED. OUT., but either way I think intentional innuendo.

The title reminds me of the line from Fletch - "How about lunch at In and Out? How about just the in and out?" Or something like that.

 

[Danny Boy]

Ack! Beat me to it.

 

[u2popmofo]

I like the new song, by the way.

Oh. Derp on my part.

I should listen to that new song though.

the band lame

Ringo Starr, Mike Love and Larry Mullen Jr. are among the most famous band lames.

Pitchfork: Yup, Washed Out's Album Cover Was in Cosmo

 

[onebloodonelife]

I imagine he didn't have money to pay for a proper photo. Clearly, we don't see eye to eye about this cover though...
