Forth Wanderers Shares New Track “Bluff” From The Longer This Goes On
Forth Wanderers – Ava Trilling, Ben Guterl, Zach Lorelli, Noah Yu Schifrin, and Duke Greene – are sharing the animated visualizer for “Bluff,” a new song from The Longer This Goes On, available worldwide through Sub Pop on Friday, July 18th, 2025.
“Bluff” opens with the cool tones of the keyboard and auxiliary percussion, Trilling’s voice guiding the song through to its melancholic core. Under the watchful eye of producer Dan Howard, the song captures the band at their most present and unburdened, creating their sound in real time for the very first time. The visualizer is animated and directed by Guterl.
Last month, Forth Wanderers shared The Longer This Goes On release details with the Bandcamp-only “To Know Me/To Love Me,” and followed it up a few days later by the dizzying official video for “7 Months.”
The Longer This Goes On was produced by Dan Howard at Chateau Grand Studios and Future Sounds in New York, and mixed and mastered by Al Carlson at Gary’s Electric in New York. The Longer This Goes On is the group’s first recorded output since the release of Forth Wanderers, their beloved 2018 Sub Pop debut.
The Longer This Goes On is available to preorder now on CD/LP/all DSPs from Sub Pop. LP preorders from megamart.subpop.com in North America, MM2 in the UK + EU, and your local record store, will receive the limited Loser Edition on Milky Clear (NA) or White (UK/EU) vinyl (all vinyl color editions whilst stock lasts!).
