Tally [LP]

Coming this July is Body Type third record "Tally", via p(doom) records. Here, the everyday bits of life-taking a lift up to a boyfriend's apartment, divvying up a bill-are transformed into sublime and surreal thrills. This is a luminous rock record, chronicling mundanity's mystical implications, the deformations of romance and love's confounding elasticity. Combining big, jagged riffs, moody post-punk and 60s pop, this is Body Type's most self-assured and expansive record to date, which coincides with their 10th anniversary as a collective. It's the sound of a band maturing and taking stock, but where wit and playfulness still reigns supreme.
