"The album was made with Spoon's Jim Eno and recorded at Seth Manchester's Machines with Magnets studio."
"The album includes last year's single "Forever Elsewhere," and the new single is crunchy earworm "Might See You There" - one of a few songs on the record to feature backing vocals by Julianna Riolino."
"'Might See You There' is about going back to visit my hometown and being flooded with teenage nostalgia," Alex says. "Small-town boredom and isolation almost feel like a gift in today's highly connected world. I feel fortunate for that time spent idly, down in the basement, learning the entire Rancid Let's Go album on guitar with my friends. I find it easy to romanticise that time in my life, even though I was, without question, a disgruntled kid who badly wanted to escape my surroundings and see the world."
Alex Edkins, formerly of METZ, releases his second Weird Nightmare album Hoopla on May 1 via Dine Alone (Canada) and Sub Pop (rest of world). The album was made with Spoon's Jim Eno and recorded at Seth Manchester's Machines with Magnets studio. It includes last year's single 'Forever Elsewhere' and the new single 'Might See You There,' which features backing vocals by Julianna Riolino and evokes teenage nostalgia for small-town boredom. The album contains ten tracks and a summer tour across North America with an NYC stop at Union Pool on June 27.
