The Whigs: New Album


Athens, Georgia favorites The Whigs have announced January 22, 2008 as the release date for their ATO debut, apparently titled Mission Control. The album was produced by Rob Schnapf (Elliot Smith, Beck) in Sunset Sound Recorders in L.A. Both Pet Sounds and Exile on Main Street were recorded there. After hearing a number of these songs live, I am very excited for this thing to drop. Check out a stream of "Like A Vibration" below.
