LP12", Black Vinyl

2018

The X-Wife are back and with the new single and video "This Game", they already reveal a little of what we can expect from the band's fifth album. The self-titled album is released on April 6 2018.

 

"This Game" is the new single to be taken from "X-Wife", the fifth album of one of the most important bands of the independent music world in Portugal. A theme that proves the reinvention capacity of the group composed by João Vieira, Fernando Sousa and Rui Maia. A song that represents how they are always present, modern and urban in what they produce.

 

There are 10 songs that make up "X-Wife", an album that reaches us almost 7 years after the last record of the band's originals. And, again, 10 songs worked to the smallest detail. In honor of one of their albums, "Are You Ready For a Blackout", X-Wife launches with this album its own records label, Blackout, becoming the band responsible for their independent editions.

 

 

The great challenge of a band with more than 15 years of career, which has achieved the feat of setting the national clock with the international, is to remain relevant.

The relevance of the X-Wife, even if more occasional, is the same as what they showed in "Feeding the Machine", whether in their hometown, Porto, or in London, Paris, Barcelona, ​​or any other bustling city, because it is more ambitious urban modernity that we keep talking about when we talk about X-Wife.
