Kurt Vile shares mixtape, announces new EP and expanded album, is starting to make "lazy" look bad!

Dude, what’s up Kurt Vile??! You’re all, like, ruining laziness for the rest of us, man… I just, like, totally read (well, kinda skimmed-over at least) over at self-titled that you’ve got big, “ambitious” plans for the expanded edition of your most recent album Wakin on a Pretty Daze (TMT Review), which is called Deluxe Daze (Post Haze) and is coming on November 19 via Matador? Including “new artwork from the legendary street artist ESPO and a special new bonus EP of all-new stuff called it’s a big world out there (and i am scared), the latter of which is also available as a 12inch?

Like, are you kidding me? What the fuck is next, man? Are you gonna, like, laboriously upload that private “KV mixtape” thing of songs that you dig from Floyd and Ween and Big Star and shit from earlier this year to freakin’ SoundCloud and then feign a little sloth by claiming that you’re doing it “for the purpose of loose/good vibes”?!? I mean, Jesus CHRIST, man. PLEASE stop ruining it for the rest of us. My girlfriend is gonna start to get IDEAS when she hears about all this… this STUFF you’re doing with your time. For shame.
