Washer return with their first new full length album in six years! The two piece band, based in Philadelphia and Brooklyn, create brilliantly sloppy indie rippers with gusto. The record, "Improved Means to Deteriorated Ends" deals with the struggle to make meaning in our lives, and not doing so hot at the job. Spread between fifteen tracks, the record finds the band venting frustrations around the drive to make things and the idea that we choose what has meaning in our lives. Some songs are more introspective than others, but most are about struggling to reconcile our capacity to make meaning with our emotional response to everything in our lives. While the topic sounds heavy, the record is undoubtably fun, punchy, and loaded with hooks.
