Hello there, loyal readers. And if you are a loyal reader, you’ll know that I am really like the band Wet Leg. Like, to a degree almost as uncomfortable as their band name. (And by I, I mean Dakin Hardwick, the Music Editor for this very site.) And since I have a forum to talk about how much I like something, I’m using that forum to shout any Wet Leg news that I can. Today’s news is great. First, we have a 3rd single called “Too Late Now” that you can set on repeat just like the first two songs. This one has the same biting commentary, but with a slower build-up and less overtly funny lyrics. This one also has a fiercely loud b-side, “Oh No,” a track that would be right at home on the playlist of a college radio station in 1991.
But that’s not all! We FINALLY have a release date for their Self-Titled debut coming out on Domino Records on April 8th! Preorders are happening NOW! And of course, there is a limited edition vinyl pressing with a bonus 7″ and an extra booklet. Lastly, we’ve got a full slate of North American tour dates coming your way below the jump! And if you missed out on tickets to their SF and LA club shows, they’ve been added to the bill to Chvrches at the Bill Graham Civic and Hollywood Palladium dates!
