But to paraphrase an old saying, you know it when you hear it.<\/p>\n<p>And you always hear it with <strong>The Wallflowers<\/strong>. For the past 30 years, the Jakob Dylan-led act has stood as one of rock\u2019s most dynamic and purposeful bands \u2013 a unit dedicated to and continually honing a sound that meshes timeless songwriting and storytelling with a hard-hitting and decidedly modern musical attack. That signature style has been present through the decades, baked into the grooves of smash hits like 1996\u2019s <em>Bringing Down the Horse<\/em> as well as more recent and exploratory fare like 2012\u2019s <em>Glad All Over<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Even so, in recent years, Dylan \u2013 the Wallflowers\u2019 founding singer, songwriter and guitarist \u2013 has repeatedly stepped outside of his band, first with a pair of more acoustic and rootsy records, 2008\u2019s <em>Seeing Things<\/em> and 2010\u2019s <em>Women + Country<\/em>, and then with the 2018 film <em>Echo in the Canyon<\/em> and the accompanying soundtrack, which saw him collaborate with a host of artists classic and contemporary, from Neil Young and Eric Clapton to Beck and Fiona Apple.<\/p>\n<p>But while it\u2019s been nine long years since we\u2019ve heard from the group with whom he first made his mark, the Wallflowers are silent no more. And Dylan always knew they\u2019d return. \u201cThe Wallflowers is much of my life\u2019s work,\u201d he says simply. Plus, he adds with a laugh, \u201cIt\u2019s pretty hard to get a good band name, so if you have one, keep it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>Note<\/em>: The LP is available on <strong>purple vinyl<\/strong>, exclusive to independent shops.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re offering <a title=\"The Wallflowers - \" href=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.co.uk\/products\/wallflowers-the-exit-wounds\"><em>Exit Wounds<\/em><\/a> at <strong class=\"darkred\">special pre-sale prices<\/strong>, which won\u2019t be available after release. <a title=\"The Wallflowers - \" href=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.co.uk\/products\/wallflowers-the-exit-wounds\">Click here<\/a> for more details and to order your copy.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rock \u2018n\u2019 roll is often hard to define, or even to find, in these fractured musical times.
