Andrew W.K. Set To Release "Lost" Album, Close Calls With Brick Walls

Andrew W.K. has branched off into a lot of interesting new projects since he burst onto the scene with I Get Wet, but many of his fans have a soft spot for the loud, aggresively stupid, horned hand jams on the album. Andrew W.K. has heard the cries, and will release his "lost" album Close Calls With Brick Walls. The album was previously only available in Japan and Korea, and showcases some of the frustration that W.K. felt with his newfound stardom and some seriously heavy jams. The disc will be packaged with a B-sides and rarities collection titled Mother of Mankind. The set is scheduled for release on February 23. Make sure your white jeans are pressed and ready to go.
