Who

Brand new sealed 180 gram from the Who.

Who (stylised in all caps) is the eponymous twelfth studio album by the English rock band the Who, released on 6 December 2019.^[4]

In January 2019, The Who confirmed that they were working on their first album of new material in 13 years (since their 2006 studio album Endless Wire), due to contain "dark ballads, heavy rock stuff, experimental electronica, sampled stuff and Who-ish tunes that began with a guitar that goes yanga-dang", as Townshend stated.^[15] Vocalist Roger Daltrey and guitarist Pete Townshend recorded their parts of the album separately.^[16]

"Ball and Chain", released as the first single on 13 September 2019, is a re-recording of a Pete Townshend solo song called "Guantanamo", which was released on his 2015 compilation Truancy: The Very Best of Pete Townshend. A second song, "All This Music Must Fade" was released as a single on 3 October 2019 and a third, "I Don't Wanna Get Wise" received a release on Spotify and iTunes in November 2019.

The album will be supported by their Moving On! Tour.^[17] "Got Nothing to Prove", one of the Deluxe edition bonus tracks, was initially recorded as a demo in 1966, but was ultimately discarded by their manager and producer Kit Lambert due to lack of emotional resonance in the lyrics. "Sand" another early demo from 1966 is included on the Japan edition of the album as a bonus track. ^[18] "Got Nothing to Prove" was later offered to Jimmy James and the Vagabonds, who also declined it.^[18]
