WIG OUT AT JAGBAGS is Stephen Malkmus' sixth solo effort with the Jicks and finds the former Pavement leader (alongside Joanna Bolme, Jake Morris & Mike Clark) at his most playful and joyous in recent memory. The album, written in Berlin & recorded in Belgium with longtime Pavement and Jicks associate Remko Schouten is a looser, more unbridled affair that gathers those trademark guitar moves and lyrical acrobatics into an amalgam of what SM himself calls: "Projected Imaginings of Rock and Roll from the freezing north, rendered by West Coast stalwarts and a Dutch Uncle".
