Vertigo is the sixth studio album by the American psychedelic rock band Wand, released on July 26, 2024, through Drag City. It is the band's first album to feature bassist Evan Backer following the departures of keyboardist Sofia Arreguin and bassist Lee Landey, returning Wand to a four-piece lineup. The album was written and self-produced by the band, and recorded by guitarist Robbie Cody at his Los Angeles studio. Its eight tracks were assembled from more than 50 hours of recorded improvisation. Musically, critics have categorized Vertigo as a rock album with elements of psychedelic rock, art pop, noise, indie rock, and post-rock. Reviews noted its use of strings, horns, and woodwind instruments, as well as comparisons to artists including Radiohead, Can, and Talk Talk. Two singles, "Smile" and "JJ", preceded the album's release. Wand promoted the album with tours of North America and Europe, performing new material both before and after its release.
