Bodywash Release Perfect Blue

This Friday comes the release of Bodywash‘s new LP, I Held the Shape While I Could, so why not offer up one final tease before the record is out everywhere, eh? Listening through, there’s a whole lot to the vibe, with texture after texture being built into the gradual swell of the song. At times, I can hear earlier Spiritualized in the semi-psychedelia, but then they pull back the curtain to offer up these sweeter melodic moments that play upon your expectations of where the song should go. Ultimately, the song embodies a heaviness that reverberates through your home, yet still has this coy little smile beckoning the pop-heads to come hither. The new LP is out Friday via Light Organ Records.

You’re not going to want to miss out on this new Bodywash track, particularly if you’re dabbling the darkened corners of the post-punk industrial complex. For starters, the video’s really great, mixing in various components to build this futuristic world that meets up with the musical element. That music is both propulsive and noisy, though it remains wholly tied to the central melody that drives the band’s creation. Guitar notes swirl angularly, until they forced to skitter off into the noisier realms; the vocals lurk somewhere in the song’s shadows, careful not to outshine everything that surrounds them. The duo will release I Held the Shape While I Could on April 14th via Light Organ Records.
