Wylderness Announce New LP 'Big Plans for a Blue World', Stream "Wet Look"

Cardiff/London indie pop/shoegaze band Wylderness have announced the release of their second full-length album 'Big Plans for a Blue World'.

The follow-up to their 2018 self-titled debut album, was recorded and produced with Rory Attwell, and will be out on July 15 through Succulent Recordings. Pre-order your copy here.

Big Plans for a Blue World sees Wylderness return with an expanded line up, incorporating vintage synths and clarinet to their fuzzy, mesmerising wall of sound.

The name of the album was inspired by David Bowie and came to singer Marz in a dream: “I had a vivid dream that I was at a David Bowie concert in the mid 80s. Bowie walked on stage in a crisp blue suit and said ‘this is a new song, it’s called Big Plans for a Blue World’. The song was in the same vein as Sledgehammer by Peter Gabriel. Probably not up there with Bowie’s greatest work but it had a catchy chorus. I woke up and wrote it down, and started Googling to see if it was a real song by Bowie but nothing came up. We took it that this was meant to be the name for our new album.”
