Long Decter and : :' StewardÆs harmonies rise over an icy sheet of programmed drums ': ,: and a fog of synth and guitar, deceptively peaceful on the :, : surface, hiding the roiling chaos underneath. : :' ': ,: Bodywash was formed in 2014 when Chris Steward and Rosie Long :, : Decter began jamming in a basement rehearsal room at McGill : :' University. Bonding over a shared affection for shoegaze and ': ,: dream pop, the two found an immediate chemistry. ôThere is an :, : excitement that comes from having people of diverse backgrounds : :' and personalities in one room,ö says Steward, ôtrying to make ': ,: something beautiful together.ö Tom Gould joined soon after on :, : bass, and they recorded an EP in 2016. : :' ': ,: When it came time to make a full-length album, Bodywash enlisted :, : Nigel Ward to record the LP. However, the road to Comforter : :' wasnÆt easy. The recording process spanned two years and five ': ,: recording studios, with the band constantly rewriting, :, : reworking, and rearranging songs, until every note and tone felt : :' exactly right. Drummer Ryan White joined the band mid-way ': ,: through the recording process. ôThe album evolved as we were :, : evolving as a band,ö says Long Decter. ôYou can hear us grow and : :' change with each song.ö The final product was mixed by Taylor ': ,: Smith and Austin Tufts of the band Braids, and was mastered by :, : Evan Tighe. : :' ': ,: ôThe joy of experimentation is everything,ö says Steward. ôThe :, : whole thing is alchemic, trying to combine a bunch of : :' ingredients together to make gold, or whatever gold is.ö Long ': ,: Decter agrees. ôWeÆre perfectionists,ö she says, ôbut it comes :, : from a place of feeling.ö : :' ': ,: The result is the perfect insomniacÆs record, a late-night album :, : of emotional extremes, from the enveloping warmth of shoegaze to : :' the stark electronics of 90s trip-hop and IDM. Guitars blur in ': ,: and out, melodies vanish and appear, synths blinking like lights :, : in a fog. ItÆs an album of obsessive detail buried in a blur of : :' reverb. It draws you in and pushes you away in equal measure.
