  Why? thaws from the icebox with "The Hollows," the lead single taken from their 2008 soon-to-be-smash Alopecia. "The Hollows" finds the boys further realizing their own distinct brand of clever and shimmery pop with the ever-crooking subsurface smile that solidified on their critically acclaimed 2005 LP Elephant Eyelash. Why?'s three main constituents, Yoni Wolf (cLOUDDEAD, Hymie's Basement, Reaching Quiet), Josiah Wolf, and Doug McDiarmid, are here joined by a notable guest cast including Andrew Broder and Mark Erickson of Fog, Doseone, and Nedelle of the Curtains. Epic and anthemic, "The Hollows" is proof that Why? has returned with a vengeance.

The US release of "The Hollows" also boasts three exclusive B-sides (the European version will have three of its own). Filling out side A is a Dntel remix of an unreleased Alopecia track, "By Torpedo Or Crohn's," which finds Yoni barking up his most rap cadence in years atop Jimmy Tamborello's pulsing electronics very much in the vein of his James Figurine material.

Side B features friends covering older Why? material. First up is Xiu Xiu's unique and dancey electro take on "Yo Yo Bye Bye" from Elephant Eyelash. Closing out the four-song 12-inch is "Pre-teen Apocalyptic Film Acting," a medley of selected Why? material by Asthmatic Kitty recording artist Half-Handed Cloud.
