Wednesday‘s highly anticipated new album arrives in September, and they’ve given us another early taste with the third single, “Pick Up That Knife.” It’s another killer example of the grungy, noisy side of their sound, but it has some twang, too. Hear it below.
“‘Pick Up That Knife’ is a song that revolves around feelings of helplessness, when every minor inconvenience hurts double cause you’re close to giving up,” Karly Hartzman says. “It’s also about when our pedal steel player Xandy threw up in the moshpit during the Death Grips set at Primavera Sound in 2023.”
Bleeds is out on September 19 via Dead Oceans, and you can pick it up on Eco Mix vinyl in the BV shop. Wednesday will be on tour this fall, including NYC shows on November 11 and 12 at Brooklyn Steel. See all dates below.
We recently named Wednesday one of 10 artists shaping the new indie country boom, and Patterson Hood of Drive-By Truckers also called Bleeds one of the indie country albums he’s loving right now.
