Before acute comedy on Kurt Vile’s new album, its artwork sticks out. b’lieve i’m activity down… , the Philly rocker’s sixth record, shows Vile sitting abandoned with an acoustic guitar, aloof like the angel on his advance Smoke Ring For My Halo. “This is absolutely added of a beatnik record,” Vile tells EW of b’lieve, which abundantly foregoes the brittle riffs and consciousness-expanding jams that Vile and his bandage the Violators arranged into 2013’s Wakin on a Pretty Daze. “The aftermost almanac was absolutely Violators-based,” he says. “This one it’s like bisected and half.”

But whether Vile deals in electric canal or acoustic precision—and on b’lieve it’s usually the latter—he keeps his Möbius-strip-like guitar melodies intact. Recorded partly in Joshua Tree and lyrically comatose to capacity from Dust Bowl history to aboriginal Bob Dylan and Simon & Garfunkel songs, b’lieve is Vile’s best American-sounding anthology yet. “It’s got a lot of West Coast vibes,” Vile says. “I absolutely feel adequate on the East Coast in a natural, ball-busting way, so we get that anxious thing. Afresh aback I go to the West Coast I can tap into the added aerial drifter thing.”

Vile ability analyze big sounds and account in the flat but in chat he’s ashore and affable. This seemingly-oxymoronic mix of accuracy and chaos has contributed to Vile’s angel as a stoner—although, as he joked on a Wakin track, he’s “never affected the stuff.” Aback EW connects with Vile, he’s not allowance to abnegate that stereotype. “Hi, I’m at the Spin Doctors concert,” the musician’s voicemail laconically states aback he doesn’t initially aces up. “I’ll get aback at you.”

Vile’s 2015 will anon access up in a big way. b’lieve comes out Sept. 25 and forth with administration advance distinct “Pretty Pimpin”—streaming below—the rocker appear a bulk of bout dates and the album’s tracklisting on Tuesday. Vile chatted with EW about accepting aback to his beatnik roots, actuality afflicted by Cormac McCarthy and Flannery O’Connor, and why a abeyant alliance with above War on Drugs bandmate Adam Granduciel isn’t out of the question.

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Wakin on a Pretty Daze apparent you to a beyond admirers than ever. Do you anticipate that afflicted b’lieve?

KURT VILE: I feel like every one of my albums does a little bigger and my admirers grows a little more. That’s not guaranteeing that that’ll appear again, but in an ideal world… It’s funny because I could absolutely acknowledgment that catechism if you were allurement me about [Wakin]. For Smoke Ring I was touring added than anytime and accepting absolutely glossy at guitar. I had all these guitar-y songs and a lot of parts, and I was aflame to go in the studio.

[b’lieve] is absolutely added of a beatnik record. There’s affluence of guitar and affluence of instruments, but it’s added lyrical. The arrange are added open. The aftermost almanac was absolutely Violators-based. This one it’s like bisected and half. I went out with the Violators to almanac bottomward in Athens and from touring Wakin we had a rapport, a assertive binding as a band. [But to] awning all my bases in case it didn’t all work, I went with one Violator bandmate, Rob [Laakso] to California to comedy with some of my best California friends, Stella [Mozgawa] from Warpaint on drums and “Farmer” Dave from Beachwood Sparks.

On Smoke Ring For My Halo’s anthology awning you’re by yourself, captivation an acoustic guitar, and it’s the aforementioned on this album. What does that say about b’lieve?

That’s a acceptable attempt captured out in Joshua Tree at the studio, Rancho [de la Luna], area I recorded. It’s a abundant shot, with the Dobro. There’s added electricity on this record, but it is sparse. My accomplished activity I’ve been autograph acoustically. If there’s an up and bottomward cycle, which I anticipate best bodies have, I’d say Smoke Ring was down, Wakin was a little up, and this is down. It’s not absolutely bottomward in the dumps, but it’s realistic. It’ll be absorbing to see if every time I accomplish a almanac it goes up and bottomward completely.

Hamilton | 6. Farmer Refuted | Lyrics - YouTube | farmer refuted lyrics

Is there a agreeable affair abaft this record? What’s happened for you aback Wakin?

Life happens all the time. There’s abundant things that appear in life, agitative things, admired ones that you accrue or the ones that you’ve had your accomplished life. You’re consistently architecture stronger relationships. And there’s all kinds of sad things that appear in activity too, like deaths. The earlier you get, you see the apple about you—it’s consistently been that affair for me, the activity theme, the absoluteness theme, alloyed in with the audiophile-record-nerd. I’m an obsessive, so whatever I’ve been account a lot of lately, alloyed with what I’ve been alert to a lot lately. I anticipate it’s aloof music and life, combined.

What were you account and alert to aback you were recording the record?

It depends on the song. I was autograph “I’m an Outlaw,” the banjo song, for years on and off. Aback I aboriginal started I was account Cormac McCarthy, Blood Meridian, but afresh there’s Flannery O’Connor references, like Wise Blood. Another song references [O’Connor’s] The Violent Bear It Away.

“Outlaw” is the capital one I’m talking about. It’s got the attitude and the abracadabra and the paranoia and the psychedelia and the activity and death. Afresh it’s got outlaw American Southern Gothic vibes. And it’s got the almanac alarmist references, like I say I’m “on the corner, abandoned in a crowd,” which is actual drifter, but afresh after on I capitalize it as On the Corner, and it’s like the Miles Davis almanac in my Walkman. You go from Gene Clark [of the Byrds] to Clarence White’s the aboriginal amazing songwriter in the Byrds and afresh the aftermost amazing guitar player, Clarence White, aural the amount of two seconds. For the affected almanac alarmist type, with the aforementioned apperception as mine, it’s about like central jokes. Basically, it’ll cast some bodies out. It flips me out! I get aflame aback I’m on to autograph some far-out, heavy, and cautiously amusing and cautiously not funny at all lyrics. [laughs]

Performing live, how do you cast amid your jammed-out electric actuality and your fingerpicked acoustic material?

It’s a toughie, because you additionally accept to accompany new activity into the old songs. [Wakin] is two and a bisected years old at this point and it took a agglomeration of tours to alike get those arrange down. To amount out the new songs is a accomplished added freaking adventure and I won’t say it’s not frustrating, because it f—ing is. We’re still practicing. I don’t absolutely apperceive what to do. [laughs] But it’ll be fine, eventually.

I apperceive you’re buddies and acclimated to comedy with the War on Drugs’ Adam Granduciel. Do you guys still accumulate in touch? Anticipate you’ll accomplish music calm again?

We accumulate in touch, for sure, but he doesn’t alive in Philly anymore and he’s so busy. Whenever we see anniversary added it’s aloof like yesterday, but we’re both so active now. I’m abiding we’ll absolutely accomplish some music at some point, but I don’t apperceive when. We saw him at Coachella, because I had been recording, finishing the almanac in L.A. and afresh we went over to Coachella and saw the War on Drugs, who were awesome, and we saw Steely Dan, who was alarming in a absolutely altered way, and AC/DC who was alarming in a absolutely altered way. Afresh we went to the arid at like six in the morning and woke up and attempt the anthology awning in Joshua Tree.

Had you been to Joshua Tree before?

I had been there a continued time ago on a alley cruise with my wife—well, she was my adherent aback then—and afresh I hadn’t been aback until we recorded at Rancho de la Luna, maybe about October of aftermost year. Afresh I went aback afresh for the photo. The sessions were absolutely fruitful. We recorded there for eight canicule and I recorded added places a lot more, but we got absolutely acceptable actuality there.
