Phoenix’s 2006 album It’s Never Been Like That is stellar for a lot of reasons: hooks galore, artfully wounded lyrics, meticulous arrangements. But it also must be one of the most re-playable records in recent history; the thing doesn’t get old. It’s like the pre-stroke Dick Clark of post-Strokes indie-rock records.
And now the French four piece is finally releasing a follow-up, Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix, May 26 in the U.S. via Glassnote and their own new label, Loyaute. (It’s out May 25 in the rest of the world.) If the album lives up to its title and recently revealed track „1901“, we’re in for another wrinkle-free winner. (Note: The „1901“ play count on my iTunes is at 39 and counting…I clearly have mental issues.)Wolfgang finds the band bringing in co-producer Philippe Zdar of Gallic dance duo Cassius (which may explain those compressed synths on „1901“). It’s also their first record since breaking with former label Astralwerks. And while it’s cool that they’re starting their own label and all, the partnership with Glassnote is peculiar, considering that imprint’s pedigree: second-rate emo wailer Secondhand Serenade and „Smell Yo D*ck“ originator Riskay, among other even less notable names. Still, these guys seem to know what they’re doing– at least they don’t have to worry about being the hippest band on their label.
The new LP is preceded by first single „Lisztomania“, which may be inspired by the Franz Liszt biopic of the same name starring Roger Daltrey. The band is also lining up a few summertime U.S. shows. Names of songs ahead!Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix:
