Show Me the Body Announce New Album, Share Fiery Song “We Came to Play”: Stream

The post Show Me the Body Announce New Album, Share Fiery Song “We Came to Play”: Stream appeared first on Consequence.

Show Me the Body have announced their third album, Trouble the Water, arriving October 28th. The NYC post-hardcore trio also offered up another single, “We Came to Play.”

This track foregoes some of the noise elements heard on lead single “Loose Talk” and heads straight for the slamming riffs and breakdowns. Julian Cashwan Pratt spits vitriolic verses over the mosh-inducing rhythms, and it all wraps up in under three minutes without a second wasted. Fans who caught the band on its recent tour should recognize this banger.

The contrast between “Loose Talk” and “We Came to Play” is deliberate, with the press release revealing that Trouble the Water is “buoyed by moments of stinging stillness and compulsive, almost optimistic, malfunctioning rhythms.”

The album also references New York City and “pays homage to the physical city, and the New York Sound: not one particular genre, but the people and subcultures that encapsulate its true foundation, style, and spirit.” Appropriately, the LP’s 12 songs were recorded close to home in Long Island City with producer Arthur Rizk (Power Trip, Turnstile).
