Highly conceptual, the debut album from Body Parts is apparently inspired by a terrible nightmare frontman, Ryder Bach had of a close friend murdering his parents. The album explores these themes of life vs. death, dream vs. reality with the songwriting prowess of mature, seasoned technicians. With the first single, “Desperation,” the band explores even deeper textures and more complex rhythms mined from late 80s/early 90s art pop that has inspired their work to this point. ‘Fire Dream’ is set for release October 29 on Father/Daughter Records. Stream the single below and check out their August tour dates for a chance to see this impressive act live. – Jacqueline Caruso
