(City Slang)
★★★★★
IN 2016 critics’ darlings Lambchop took a massive step away from the altcountry genre they had long been associated with, delving into electronica on their FLOTUS album, something lead singer and songwriter Kurt Wagner also explored with his side project HeCTA.
This (Is What I Wanted To Tell you), the Nashville band’s 13th record, continues in this vein with Wagner’s auto-tuned and almost watery vocals sitting on top of slowed down, late-night beats and synths.
