Wand – “Walkie Talkie” [Video]

Wand’s upcoming fifth full-length, Laughing Matter, is out April 19th via Drag City Records. The record is said to be an evolution in the life of a band who’ve grown ecstatically since their debut.
For a sample of these new reaches in the Wand-iverse, look no further than “Walkie Talkie”, the new single and latest video from Laughing Matter! Lookin’ like it might’ve beamed in directly from sideways post-punk pastward futures, “Walkie Talkie” shines brightly with the reflective sheen of Wand’s modern flicker. Muted neon colors swallow seething imagery as Lee Landey and Evan Burrows’ emphatic rhythm section slams into Cory Hanson and Robbie Cody’s screaming guitars, whilst Sofia Arrequin’s warped Morse keyboards sew the song together at the edges.

You can pre-order the record HERE and check out the Wand’s extensive tour dates below.
