The world-wide radio premiere of new songs from Empty Country. The band Cymbals Eats Guitars ended in January 2018. Empty Country is a new project from former Cymbals Eats Guitars members Joseph D'Agostino and Anne Dole. The album was co-produced by D'Agostino and Kyle Gilbride of Swearin'. It is slated for release in early 2020 on Tiny Engines.
Joseph D'Agostino says about this song:
My sister-in-law Robin was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer in the summer of 2015. She is now NED (No Evidence of Disease!) and has been for more than three years. But whenever my wife Rachel goes in for her biannual examination and has imaging done, we are always pretty on-edge, to say the least. This song is about a bleak and scary week in January 2018 while we were waiting on a biopsy report following a suspicious-looking ultrasound. It features two of my heroes: Rachel on the high harmony and Charles Bissell of The Wrens on the low harmony.

"Egoli is the Xhosa word for Johannesburg -- translated into English it means 'city of gold' -- which is where the collective Africa Express recorded this album in a matter of weeks at the dawn of 2019. Like the five previous albums by Africa Express, Damon Albarn acts as a ringleader in the shadows, omnipresent and largely invisible as he conducts an ever-shifting lineup of South African musicians through lithe electro grooves and spacy pop." bit.ly

The album's title comes from the fact that the group had rented some warehouse space in which to write and rehearse; a change from their former practice of writing new material and testing it out on live audiences.
"Soul Asylum made a number of albums that sold a lot more than Hang Time, but in most respects they never got better than this -- it hits the ideal balance between their snotty roots and their more ambitious later recordings and shows these two sides of their personality could have easily coexisted under the right circumstances."
