After returning with new tune "Get Lost" last month, Washed Out (a.k.a. Ernest Greene) has revealed the song to be part of his first full-length record in four years. Titled Mister Mellow, the record will arrive June 30 via Stones Throw/Arts & Crafts.
Twelve tracks in length, Mister Mellow finds Greene guiding listeners through the "overblown and overdramatized" life of a young adult, moving away from the synth-driven sounds of his earlier work in favour of plunderphonics-rooted sonics informed by free jazz, hip-hop and psych.
Mister Mellow will also feature a full-length visual counterpart using collage, claymation, hand-drawn and stop-motion animation that is "a reaction against the sterile, hyper-realistic renderings of most modern digital-based art.
