The Body‘s been out on the road for a minute now, or, well more like several weeks to be accurate.

The dudes also somehow made time to stop off at their buddies’ studio Machines with Magnets to record three full-length albums, including one that’s going to be released on the Thrill Jockey label, which is also home to Barn Owl, Guardian Alien, The Skull Defekts and many other totally badass artists, so good work guys!

The Body’s latest release, the EP “Master We Perish,” is boss. I really dig how they go into some seriously Neurosis-esque territory for a sec on the last third of the nearly 10-minute closer “Worship.” The whole thing is really killer though, and points to more great stuff to come. Oh yeah, for all of you The Body newbies, make sure to bring some earplugs. Openers Iron Tongue and Mothwind are gonna tenderize y’all. Should be a good’n.
