Can empathy be autobiographical? What’s the point of living if we’re not trying to understand all the horror and humour that surrounds everything? These are a few of the questions lurking under the bleachers of Wednesday’s new album \u003cem\u003eBleeds\u003c\/em\u003e, an intoxicating collection of narrative-heavy Southern rock that—like many of the most arresting passages from the North Carolina band’s highlight reel so far—thoughtfully explores the vivid link between curiosity and confession.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eBleeds\u003c\/em\u003e is not only the best \u003cstrong\u003eWednesday\u003c\/strong\u003e record—it’s also the most Wednesday record, a patchwork-style triumph of literary allusions and outlaw grit, of place-based poetry and hair-raising noise. \u003cstrong\u003eKarly Hartzman\u003c\/strong\u003e—founder, frontwoman, and primary lyricist—credits Wednesday’s tightened grasp on their own identity to time spent collaborating on previous albums, plus a tour schedule that’s been both rewarding and relentless. “\u003cem\u003eBleeds\u003c\/em\u003e is the spiritual successor to \u003cem\u003eRat Saw God\u003c\/em\u003e, and I think the quintessential ‘\u003cem\u003eWednesday Creek Rock\u003c\/em\u003e’ album,” Hartzman said, articulating satisfaction with the ways her band has sharpened its trademark sound, how they’ve refined the formula that makes them one of the most interesting rock bands of their generation. “This is what Wednesday songs are supposed to sound like,” she said. “We’ve devoted a lot of our lives to figuring this out—and I feel like we did.”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJust like \u003cem\u003eRat Saw God\u003c\/em\u003e, one of the defining rock \u0026amp; roll records of the 2020s so far, \u003cem\u003eBleeds\u003c\/em\u003e came together at \u003cstrong\u003eDrop of Sun\u003c\/strong\u003e in Asheville and was produced by \u003cstrong\u003eAlex Farrar\u003c\/strong\u003e, who’s been recording the band since \u003cem\u003eTwin Plagues\u003c\/em\u003e. Hartzman again brought demos to the studio, where she and her bandmates—\u003cstrong\u003eXandy Chelmis\u003c\/strong\u003e (lap steel, pedal steel), \u003cstrong\u003eAlan Miller\u003c\/strong\u003e (drums), \u003cstrong\u003eEthan Baechtold\u003c\/strong\u003e (bass, piano), and \u003cstrong\u003eJake “M.J.” Lenderman\u003c\/strong\u003e (guitar)—worked as a team to bulk-up the compositions with the exact right amounts of country truth-telling, indie-pop hooks, and noisy sludge. More than ever, the precise proportions were steered by the lyricism—not only its tone or subject matter, but also the actual sound of the words, as well as Hartzman’s masterfully subjective approach to detail selection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery image or scene is filtered through Hartzman’s agile, writerly brain. The particulars deemed essential all contain revelations about Hartzman’s specific obsessions and vulnerabilities, about the fragmented way she processes the world. Maybe sometimes the best way to locate truth or pain or dignity within your own life story, \u003cem\u003eBleeds\u003c\/em\u003e suggests, is by crawling into someone else’s. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dead Oceans","offers":[{"title":"LP - Eco-Mix Random Colour Vinyl","offer_id":54774763389273,"sku":"SDZ-42770","price":31.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0588\/3455\/0945\/files\/Wednesday_-_Bleeds_-_LP_Indies_Exclusive_Eco-Mix_Random_Colour_Vinyl_with_Signed_Print_-_2025.jpg?v=1750342245","url":"https:\/\/spindizzyrecords.com\/products\/wednesday-bleeds-with-signed-print","provider":"Spindizzy Dublin","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
