"Their 2011 debut album Go Tell Fire to the Mountain turned them into one of the buzz bands of the moment, but they broke up just one year after its release. But instead of fading away into the memories of those who remember all the indie buzz bands of the early 2010s, the legend of WU LYF grew, mostly because Go Tell Fire to the Mountain is a genuinely great album that always deserved the hype."
"There was real excitement when WU LYF came back for reunion shows last year, and that continued with the new song "A New Life Is Coming." As good as that song was, new single "Tib St. Tabernacle" is even better. It's an epic 11-minute song produced by Sonic Boom that goes through a handful of changes and really earns its lengthy runtime."
WU LYF debuted in 2011 with Go Tell Fire to the Mountain, which made them a buzz band before they broke up a year later. The album grew the band's legend because of its quality and lasting appeal. Vocalist Ellery James Roberts continued with Lost Under Heaven (LUH). The band's sound has been compared to the UK's new art rock generation, including black midi. Reunion shows in 2025 generated excitement and led to new music. The single "Tib St. Tabernacle," produced by Sonic Boom, is an epic 11-minute track with multiple changes and a justified runtime. WU LYF announced North American dates including Brooklyn, Washington DC, Boston, Toronto, Chicago, Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, and Los Angeles.
