When it dropped in 2008, Alopecia not only marked WHY?’s evolution from a sonically collaged mostly solo project to a live-recorded powerhouse band of badass multi-instrumentalists. It also minted a genre of one: wryly written, poignantly posed, simultaneously swaggering and heart-rending song-rap that jangles like folk, bursts like psych-rock, and sways like chamber pop. To this day, there is no other group in the known universe that sounds or feels like WHY? does on Alopecia. The album’s 2018 reissue cheekily etches that aural likeness into our musical history. “If the genre-agnosticism of WHY? is no longer novel, it’s still stunningly unique.” Pitchfork “Yoni Wolf has carved out a curious niche for himself. In the two decades he’s spent releasing off-kilter hip-hop under the WHY? moniker–first as a solo act, and more recently as the frontman of a six-piece band–he’s evolved in some sort of isolation, refining his sound while indie rock and hip-hop forked off around him. He’s adored for it, too. Artist WHY? Genre Rap / Hip Hop Label Joyful Noise Recordings Buying Options 1LP Format 1LP Condition New Country United Kingdom Track Listings 1. The Vowels Pt. 2 2.
