Wu Lyf have announced their second album, 15 years after their debut. After a flurry of activity since teasing reunion shows last March, the band will release A Wave That Will Never Break, produced by Spacemen 3’s Sonic Boom, on April 10. Listen to a new song, “Love Your Fate,” below. The band has also added a European leg to the North American tour announced in April; scroll down for the dates.
The band is planning to release the album through its L Y F community, according to a press release. It will not be available on any of the major streaming services. “The vision for the L Y F has been with us since the start,” the group wrote in a statement. “Way back in 2010 when we first sold the white on white bandana with the Heavy pop / Concrete Gold 12″—We foresaw a community of like-minds that would gather around the flame of our music, and through whose direct support we could operate with freedom, autonomy & the truth; to play our own (infinite) game—alas we were young, foolish, and didn’t have the means or the infrastructure for the impulse to reach its full potential. Now 15 years later here we are—the initial version of the L Y F membership platform has been an experimental proof of concept—we have learnt a lot from it over the past year and behind the scenes we have been building Version 2.0.”
