Los Thuthanaka’s Wak’a is a mellower follow-up to last year’s surprise Pitchfork favorite

Los Thuthanaka basically came out of nowhere last year to capture Pitchfork’s album of the year with their self-titled debut. Because it wasn’t available on streaming, it largely flew under the radar. I honestly kind of forgot about it until Pitchfork gave it the number one spot in its year-end list.

[…]
