I am a Kurt Vile-O'phile. Classic Love is quintessential Vile. Warm. Weird. Funny.

A collaboration with Luke Roberts centers the EP. They team up on a version of Roberts's title tune, and KV takes a solo pass on another version of the song. Two versions? Both work.

They co-wrote “Hit of the High Life,” which sounds like a lost song off Neil Young's On The Beach LP. It's confessional, raw, and angsty about the world, macro and micro.

Mix in a Beach House cover, an updated catalog song, and you’ve entered the creative playground Vile calls home.
