Mar 12, 2010 Wye Oak By Laura Studarus

The spring is looking busy for Baltimore duo Wye Oak. Their newest EP My Neighbor/My Creator is out today via the Merge webstore. It’s a four-song (and one remix) collection that the press release says, “feel loose and direct, from the tumbling opener ‘My Neighbor’ to the propulsive ‘Emmylou.’ ‘My Creator’ and ‘I Hope You Die’ begin like ballads but soon reveal unexpected layers of saxophone and percussion over Wasner’s cascading vocals.”

For those of you who are still keen on tangibility, the physical CD will be released June 8th. Or, you could just buy it from the band on their extensive North American Tour. The choice is yours.

My Neighbor/My Creator:

1. My Neighbor

2. Emmylou

3. My Creator

4. I Hope You Die

5. That I Do (Mickey Free Remix)
