OUT NOW:The Ophelias, Almost
Produced by Yoni Wolf (WHY?), the new album Almost glides between palatial assuredness and pallid introspection, looking back on youthful yearning—the uncertainties, the traumas, the anxieties—without discounting its soft beauty. The Ophelias steer Almost through the lineage of coming-of-age confessionals, and affectionately document their growth into a warm, fractured adulthood.
Stereogum premiered official Lyric Video for first single ”Fog”. “Just under two minutes, it’s jumpy, sweeping, and polished. It feels alive and warm, as if covered in a sheet of honey.”
Available for Pre-Order on strawberry creamsicle vinyl, green glass vinyl, CD, Cassette and digital right this way…

ANNOUNCING: WHY? Alopecia - 10th anniversary reissue!
When it dropped in 2008, Alopecia not only marked WHY?'s evolution from a sonically collaged mostly solo project to a live-recorded powerhouse band of badass multi-instrumentalists, it also minted a genre of one: wryly written, poignantly posed, simultaneously swaggering and heart-rending song-rap that jangles like folk, bursts like psych-rock, and sways like chamber pop. To this day, there is no other group that sounds or feels like WHY? does on Alopecia.The limited edition vinyl is pressed on cloud color vinyl; 'bonus 7" on red vinyl, featuring remixes by Boards of Canada and Dntel
