Dreaming in Stereo episode 26

It's funny how long Wye Oak flew under my radar. They're practically a local band for me, but I just now finally tuned into them. Digging what I heard, really interested to see what the new album has to offer. You can tell, though, that the group has elevated past the dreaded "local band" status, as their current tour features no Baltimore date (DC is the closest they get).

Lowtide is the key discovery of this show. As mentioned in the show, I caught them on an episode of Henry Rollins's radio show Fanatic on KCRW, where he played the entire album. It is brilliant all the way through, and definitely an album that will be on heavy rotation here.

And I've only been able to dig into a couple of tracks on the new TBTCI compilation, but so far it's looking like another quality comp. I don't know how he does it, but Renato Malizia is truly one of the standouts in keeping this music going.
