Cass McCombs WIT’S END is shaping to be one of the more divisive records of this still young year. Pitchfork has already branded it Best New Music, while our staff member, Andrew Bailey, went a different direction with the album at his own Binge Listening. Here at One Thirty BPM, we split the difference.
Now is your chance to hear WIT’S END and judge for yourself. One thing that is not up for debate is that McCombs continues to show vast talent and a supreme gift of creativity. It’s nice to see him getting so much attention, for good or for bad. Stream the new album (out today on Domino) below and view his upcoming tour dates.
