The nine songs on Every Day Like the Last, which were recorded in Jenn Wasner and Andy Stack current home state of North Carolina and Virginia at venues that include Stack backyard studio, compiles the singles Wye Oak has released since 2019s glowing “Fortune” and includes three new songs. While it wasnt conceived the way an album traditionally is, these songs coalesce because of the way they examine and grapple with ambiguities, which is reflected by the dual meaning of the title and its attendant track, a pensive, suspended-in-midair track that contemplates the importance of human connection.
