Some tracks, you press play, and you go back over and over again. No matter what, the song supersedes anything else in your listening rotation, which is precisely the case with this new track from Chastity Belt. It’s got just the right amount of bounce to it, combined with the dreamy quality of the vocals. There’s a distance to the vocals, though that doesn’t prevent you from attaching yourself to the lyrics…and ultimately the tune. Look for this hit and more on the band’s new album, Time to Go Home, being released by Hardly Art on March 24th.

Chastity Belt Signs with Hardly Art

January 7, 2015 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

I’m always happy to throw a shout out to our longtime friends over at Hardly Art, especially when I get excited about one of their new signings. In this case, the label has signed up with Seattle’s Chastity Belt, who are bringing a nice dose of indie rock to the proverbial table. There’s a jagged edge to the guitar riffs, though that’s often touched upon by some distortion; it’s backed by a strong vocal performance that comes across as a relaxed nod to 90s girl groups. I also love the switch of pace that occurs here and there, throughout. Look for the group’s new album Time to Go Home on March 24th.
