Slacker minus the hair lacquer, Kurt Vile, is set to release a 69-minute double album Wakin on a Pretty Daze on April 9, via Matador. Best way to build anticipation for said release? Put out a near 10-minute long single with an almost identical title and make it available as a free download, of course.
