Total Wife - come back down [CD]

Come Back Down, the new album by Nashville experimental-pop duo Total Wife, was born from the edge of sleep. When composer and producer Luna Kupper would begin to fall asleep during late-night mixing sessions, the songs would follow her into the halfway place between dream and lucidity. Like Dale Cooper in Twin Peaks, she'd wake with a new perspective on the puzzle she was piecing together. "I'm a psychological mixer, I'm trying to think of how someone's experiencing the sound, versus getting stuck in trying to make all these different tones and using all this gear to make something sound a certain way," Kupper says.

Come Back Down was named the #1 Shoegaze Album of 2025 by Stereogum, who claimed the album was "the definitive 2020s shoegaze masterpiece." This reissue marks the one-year anniversary of the original release, now available on vinyl and CD for the first time.
