Alright America, it’s time that you fall head over heels for The Wildhearts. Over three decades into a career that has seen the Brit rockers release nothing but gold, this latest effort carries on that fine tradition. The lineup has changed this time, but frontman Ginger’s songwriting is as dynamically astounding and melodically insistent as it always is. “Troubadour Moon” sounds at least semi-autobiographical, detailing the life of a musician who is still struggling deep into his career. It’s puzzling—The Wildhearts should be headlining arenas.
