The Body

Portland duo The Body's 2016 album "No One Deserves Happiness" is still in pretty normal rotation for me two years later, and there's still nothing else out there that sounds like it.  May brings us the band's latest, "I Have Fought Against It, But I Can't Any Longer," which seems to push even further into the sonic territories the band has been laying the groundwork for their entire career.  Elements of electronic, synth-wave, pop, and more seep their way into the thundering, black metal-indebted, experimental soup.  All at once, it's beautiful and terrifying, and i cannot wait for this record to come out.  Listen to "Nothing Stirs" below and pre-order the album here via Thrill Jockey.
