WU LYF announce first album in 15 years, share new single “A New Life is Coming”

WU LYF, who are back in action, have announced their first album in 15 years, which is also their first since their debut. It’s titled A Wave That Will Never Break and will be out April 10 via their L Y F members website, but not on major streaming services. The album was produced by Spacemen 3’s Sonic Boom.

“With the help of you all we have written, recorded, and produced the long awaited second WU LYF record.. The vision for the L Y F has been with us since the start,” the band write. “Way back in 2010 when we first sold the white on white bandana with the Heavy pop / Concrete Gold 12″—We foresaw a community of like-minds that would gather around the flame of our music, and through whose direct support we could operate with freedom, autonomy & the truth; to play our own (infinite) game—alas we were young, foolish, and didn’t have the means or the infrastructure for the impulse to reach its full potential. Now 15 years later here we are—the initial version of the L Y F membership platform has been an experimental proof of concept—we have learnt a lot from it over the past year and behind the scenes we have been building Version 2.0.”

The album does not include last year’s epic “A New Life Is Coming,” but they have shared the album’s opening track and first single, “Love Your Fate.” This is charging, anthemic stuff and very Wu Lyf. Listen below.
