Independent record store exclusive limited edition on pink and black smush coloured vinyl.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSoft Control is the tenth studio album by the Afghan Whigs, released in 2026 through Royal Cream and BMG. Arriving four years after How Do You Burn?, the album was recorded across sessions in Joshua Tree, New Orleans, East Hollywood, and Cincinnati. The band recorded 22 songs before narrowing the final sequence to 10, with guest contributions from former drummer Patrick Keeler, vocalist and violist Petra Haden, and My Morning Jacket keyboardist Bo Koster.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMusically, Soft Control continues the band's combination of alternative rock with soul and R\u0026amp;B, balancing forceful guitars and rhythmic grooves with piano, brass, strings, and more restrained arrangements. Songs including \"Jungle Roux,\" \"House of I,\" \"Duvateen,\" and \"The Deepest Part of the Darkest Shadow\" move between heavier rock passages and the more atmospheric, soulful side of the band's sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe album also reflects a more measured perspective in Greg Dulli's songwriting, with themes of aging, relationships, reflection, and the consequences of past experience appearing throughout the record. Released during the Afghan Whigs' fortieth anniversary year, Soft Control extends the musical direction of their post reunion albums while retaining the tension between rock and soul that has remained central to the band.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTRACKLIST:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA1 Jungle Roux\u003cbr\u003eA2 House Of I\u003cbr\u003eA3 Duvateen\u003cbr\u003eA4 My Lover\u003cbr\u003eA5 The Deepest Part Of The Darkest Shadow\u003cbr\u003eB1 Mariah Luster\u003cbr\u003eB2 Memphis, Texas\u003cbr\u003eB3 77\u003cbr\u003eB4 Loose Talk\u003cbr\u003eB5 A Simulation\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Resolute Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48412520874242,"sku":"4099964257137","price":43.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/0007\/9304\/files\/TheAfghanWhigs_SoftControl.jpg?v=1787947222","url":"https:\/\/resoluterecords.ca\/products\/the-afghan-whigs-soft-control-new-vinyl-limited-edition-pink-and-black-vinyl","provider":"Resolute Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
