Wipes, from the Allentown/Bethlehem, PA area, is set to release the band's debut full-length album, Making Friends, on Nov. 4, 2022.
While a new band, the group shares members with Tile and was formed when Tile's guitarist had other responsibilities that slowed that band's activity. Wipes features Ray Gurz (bass, vocals) and Michael Dumoff (drums) of Tile, plus guitarist Matt Molchany (who previously recorded and engineered both Tile albums).
After a lathe cut 7" (Limited Appeal records), and an upcoming split cassette with Day Job, the band has a full-length which will be released by Hex Records in November.
The band shares "Always" now:
