Ten years after it's release- Wye Oak's Civilian remains a raw sinewy punch of a record-bleak - - and intense and lonely and self-assured all at once. The album unravels with the sort of self questioning and uncertainty that come with youth and it's specific confidence in unflinchingly probing all of those emotions feeling them to their deepest extent even when it's tearing you apart at the seams. When Andy Stack and Jenn Wasner released Civilian it marked both the ascension and death of Wye Oak or at least a version of it. Now a decade later Civilian + Cut All the Wires: 2009-2011 delves back into that pivotal record and adds a lost album of unreleased tracks and demos to Civilian's universe. - - Civilian - A1 Two Small Deaths - A2 The Alter - A3 Holy Holy - A4 Dogs Eyes - A5 Civilian - B1 Fish - B2 Plains - B3 Hot As Day - B4 We Were Wealth - B5 Doubt - Cut All The Wires: 2009-2011 - C1 Replacement - C2 Civilian (Demo) - C3 No Words - C4 Electricity - C5 Half A Double Man - C6 Sinking Ship - D1 Two Small Deaths (Daytrotter Session) - D2 Holy Holy (Demo) - D3 Pardon - D4 Black Is The Color - D5 Ten Fingers - D6 I'm Proud
