Stephen Malkmus returns with his first new record since relocating to Europe: Wig Out At Jagbags is due on (David Bowie’s birthday) January 6th. He and the Jicks roped us in today with “Lariat,” a witty, indie-rock jam replete with obscure, late-’80s references and some guitar hooks primed for folks who “grew up listening to the music from the best decade ever.” He’s “talkin’ ’bout the ADDs,” apparently, and unleashing an awesome new cut, too. Hear it in official video form above.
