Yup, the new FF record can be streamed at the ‘official’ site of the band’s forthcoming album, Wasting Light.
I’m currently five tracks in and, ya know what, the choice to track the record to analog was a good one. A great one, in fact. It just sounds so fucking pure. In addition, producer Butch Vig got some seriously heavy performances outta these guys; they needed it. And the Alan Moulder-helmed mix sounds wonderful.
Apart from that, this shit is loud. I love it and can’t wait to hear these live.
Wasting Light drops April 11.
Greetings. I'm originally from Milwaukee, WI, but currently living in Madison. I earned a poli-sci degree from UW-Madison in December 2008 and now trying to figure out what to do...
Anyhow I'm an aspiring music critic, having been published in the Badger Herald (UW's premier student paper) and the London-based blog The Line of Best Fit.
