New record, track listing, tour dates, first single... the whole shabang
69 minute double album! This excites me...lovin the title track :evil:
Blue vinyl, eh?
Also, for you Philly guys, some cool info re: the cover art.

I can't wait. His last album is a classic. This title track is fantastic.
kurt vile is the tits! he needs to get back with war on drugs and my life would be a little bit better
I really do like this first single, all 9 minutes of it. Kurt Vile falls into the category of people I could listen to play guitar for days. Cant wait for this record and tour. The handful of times I've seen Kurt and the Violators they fucking killed it

Just saw them without Kurt when they opened for the Walkmen. They still are awesome

Wow. Just wow.
I guess I severely underestimated his draw. His NYC show sold out in a day, which I definitely did not expect, and I was left in the dust. The power of craigslist to the rescue again I hope
well that post made me impulse buy his Boston show. It's at the sinclair which is a new venue. should be interesting.
I've got tix for his Philly show at Union Transfer. Should be good, I'm loving his new song.

here's a really good interview, mostly about the new record.
The new Kurt Vile and the Violators is streaming on NPR. I'm liking it.

was just listening myself...wondering if i should go see him
He is coming to Forecastle. If I am lucky, it will be the same day as Jim James's performance.
Few tracks in and loving it!
I think this may be my favorite album I've heard this year! I'm so glad that I get to see him this spring and summer!
Nice, Fully! I had every intention of listening today and then all hell broke loose at work, in a good way. Haven't had a chance to listen but I'm excited. Excited to see him at Union Transfer too!
Vinyl arrived today complete with stickers. :cheesy:
He's playing here in May, I HAVE to be at that show. I haven't seen him yet.
I made this yesterday.

very IMpatiently waiting on this one to arrive in the mail. I didnt listen to the stream for whatever reason, but its definitely my most anticipated album of the year. I've only been reading good things thus far. Who here has heard it?

That's a nice find, Dillsnufus! Thanks! I really do think that this is one of my favorite albums I've heard this year. Although this performance doesn't sound as light and airy as the record, but that doesn't really matter.

Hey Guys so I just saw Kurt and The Violators at the Sinclair in Cambridge,MA. Great show (a little late and too much new album but nbd) . Here are my photos and a couple videos I've uploaded so far.
