I can't believe there's actually a band at the intersection of country, shoegaze, and emo; and miraculously they are completely unpretentious and inspiring people too!

I hope they recorded an MJ Lenderman set on the same day. This was incredible

[@cameronmcrobbie]

I love the sound of the lap steel so much

[@thelocalsage]

karly’s writing is some of my favorite lyricism of all time, so so sick to hear more about her process and learn how it parallels mine, glad wednesday finally gets a kexp sesh

[@jgrim03]

Just found them recently, and am beyond impressed. Feels like Sonic Youth with more soul, steel guitar, and sometimes twang, and I love it.

[@stereoagnostic]

Agreed. I also sense some Polvo vibes...

[@hanskloss1331]

Pavement

[@rrantzau]

Pure musical genius. Wednesday are no fluke, rest assured.

[@nicklaussmith6567]

had the pleasure of seeing them live in Pittsburgh in November 2021. they deserve the world!!!

[@vozvolta271]

I love Wednesday so much I saw them live in Sacramento and it changed my life genuinely

[@psykloz]

What a cool vibe in this live and chatting! They are so fun. I love the way Larry made them feel comfortable. He is such a nice host!! I'm glad to come to know this great talented band. Thank you for this.

[@hidingplaces3150]

awww the energy at the end w y'all introducing yrselves so calm so sweet

[@chipsher24]

Wow. And their latest, RAT SAW GOD is epic. I like the Pavement undertones.

[@jackklingenberg7338]

This is amazing! Once again you guys are showcasing yet another fantastic band!

[@talulahbeisel]

hands down my favorite band atm, these guys are sososo badass

[@jgc02]

here before they're the most popular band in the world...who else

[@frogjar]

Wednesday and Margaritas Podridas are hands down my favorite KEXP performances ever

[@garycollumbell1396]

I'd probably have to agree here I'd probably add bully and widowspeak although bully has been better on other stations and channels

[@deeliciousplum]

While listening to this, I felt at least twenty years old. Miss and love energy like this in original bands.

[@squeakeththewheel]

Me too, and I am half a century older than that.

[@OrbitalLizardStudios]

NO WAY i started listening to Wednesday again recently and now this came out! Heck yeah

[@TheRichieC78]

That's MJ Lenderman right there. Album of the year.

[@Bianca-333]

This definitely has a 90’s teen angst vibe, I really like it!

[@PolyvinylRecords]

[@Amandanumnum]

[@OhHellNo1111]

They are such a special band, love them so much

[@milandejong]

[@MartyMcVador]

C'est mercredi, les gars !

[@bjwnashe5589]

This is inspired music. I'm very impressed. I love alt-country, and I love shoe-gaze. So yes, this is amazing.

[@squeakeththewheel]

Son Volt meets grunge.

[@hayleylongster4698]

This is so 90s it made me nearly cry with absolute pure nostalgic joy. The best times. 👌

[@emeraldcelestial1058]

it's an incredibly beautiful and emotional set

[@chuckbeers]

Yes, they have some distinct Breeders influence.

[@SmartStr33t]

Their new song Bull Believer is incredible - listen to it now if you've not heard it yet. So intense.

This is what happens when artists create what what moves them rather than what they think will sell - integrity.

[@marksmith1813]

Getting some 90's vibes from this one. Sort of like Cranberries, Smashing Pumpkins, and early Radiohead (Johnny Greenwood's ripping/dissonant guitar sound.) Cool sound.

I wonder what effects the lapsteel player is using

[@abrahamgroves5887]

as a guitar player who has absolutely fallen head over heels for this band I have to admit that i'm definitely wondering the same thing... but also for fun i googleds "effects": effect of sanctions on russia effect of masterburation on memory effect of climate change effect of alcohol effect of excessive venitlation effect of low hemoglobin on periods
