Description

Wagons are excited to announce the release of their new album Songs From The Aftermath, the band’s first release since 2014. After this almost five-year gap, they once more prove their ability to meld the worlds of Americana and alt-pop, reviving their original sound with a modern flair which catapults them ahead of the competition.

On Songs From The Aftermath, Wagons stay atop their own tidal wave of hard-hitting, outlaw-inspired, swamp rock madness, still pulsing and stomping together as a joint force, with singer Henry Wagons at the helm. Henry’s fierce intellect, once hurtling toward a career as a philosopher, was thankfully derailed by a record deal, a thirst for whisky, and an insatiable need to make noise, as made evident by their music and lyrics.

Songs From the Aftermath has the band’s trademark enigmatic twang, fused with chaos, longing and loneliness. “I came up with the kernels for most of this record, when I was away from Australia,” says Henry Wagons. “A lot of these songs were written on highways across America, and the distance from home is what gives the record its perspective.” This collection of ballads will definitely keep old fans happy and is sure to pick up some new ones on the way – and we love it!
