The Afghan Whigs Announce New Album In Spades, Share Video for New Track: Watch
The Afghan Whigs have announced their new album In Spades. The follow-up to 2014’s Do to the Beast was written and produced by frontman Greg Dulli, and is out May 5 on Sub Pop. It is the band’s first album since guitarist Dave Rosser was diagnosed with cancer last year. They’ve also shared the Phil Harder-directed video for their new track “Demon in Profile.” It stars Har Mar Superstar. Watch it below. Scroll down for the album’s tracklist and artwork, as well as the Afghan Whigs’ new European tour dates, which include a stop at Primavera Sound.
“It’s a spooky record,” said Dulli of the album in a statement. “I like that it’s veiled. It’s not a concept album per se, but as I began to assemble it, I saw an arc and followed it. To me it’s about memory—in particular, how quickly life and memory can blur together.”
