Both an accessible album and one that captures the band's on-stage passion (something that has become synonymous with the band's live show), IN THE DARK reveals another layer in the band's songwriting and highlights what fans and critics have fallen in love with, including Jon Pareles of The New York Times who praised the band for their "two-chord guitar and drums furor worthy of The Who."
Eager to give fans new music, the Athens, GA three piece is now offering 2 new songs - "In The Dark" and "Hundred / Million" - for free download at www.thewhigs.com/music/in-the-dark-single. In addition, the band is currently on a North American headlining tour premiering new songs. Tour dates below.
From the driving guitars and crushing drums of "So Lonely" to the hypnotic and playful "Black Lotus," from the reckless blitz and thuggish bass lines of "Someone's Daughter," to the anthemic "Kill Me Carolyne," IN THE DARK is the work of a band moving forward creatively while remaining true to their roots.
Track-listing to be announced shortly.
