Washed Out have announced their fifth album, Notes from a Quiet Life, which will be out June 28 via Sub Pop. Ernest Greene, who is Washed Out, produced it by himself for the first time, and it was mixed by Nathan Boddy (James Blake, Mura Masa) and David Wrench (Caribou, Florence + the Machine). The title refers to Greene’s decision to leave Atlanta and return to rural Macon, GA where he grew up. “I’ve read that every five, maybe 10, years, you’re practically a different person — like literally, on a cellular level,” Greene says, talking about the album. “The things that you’re going through will end up changing you, and you’re kind of a different person. This album is a reflection of that. Experimenting with painting and sculpture helps my music. They influence each other. That was a kind of realization for me. I don’t want to look back on my life one day, and be like, ‘Oh, it was all about maximizing productivity.’ I want to enjoy this.” 1. Waking Up 2. Say Goodbye 3. Got Your Back 4. The Hardest Part 5.
