I was a little slow to check out Wye Oak, but their new one finally roped me in. Robbie from These United States was always telling me that they’re a great band (and great people), so I knew I had to eventually listen. Glad I did. Their new record The Knot is out later this year on Merge.

MP3: Wye Oak – Take It In
Though they only bare a passing similarity, I’d say that fans of Viva Voce would be wise to check out this new song by Wye Oak. It’s got a dramatic push that reminds me of Viva Voce’s last (not newest) album.
