"'In case I make it,'"[1] is the fourth studio album by American musician Will Wood, released through Say-10 on July 29, 2022.[2] It is considered by some to be a significant stylistic departure from his previous releases, with a focus on orchestral arrangements and acoustic instrumentation.[3]

Writing and production
Writing for Will Wood's fourth album took place between 2018 and 2022. In early 2021, he announced that the album would be funded through Indiegogo and called In Case I Die.[4] This name was replaced later in the year by "In case I make it,"[5] as the former title was conceived through fear of death and intended to be his final album.[6] Wood later referred to the album as "essentially a musical suicide note".[7] Wood created demos of the album solely with MIDI, only introducing the songs to his band after completion and sharing them with orchestras and brass personnel.[6]

Reception
Joshua Nelson of Bleeding Cool described the album as "a more subdued and mellow take on the stories and issues Will Wood typically tackles in his songwriting."[15] Caitlin Hsu of SwitchBitch Noise called Wood "the master of writing the most danceable songs with the most devastating lyrics" for his work on the album.[16] Behind the Curtains Media's Suzanne Torrison called the album "his most intricate and musically diverse album to date... in Will Wood's ever-changing and genre-bending discography."[2]
