New York art-rock/punk band
Bodega have revealed details of their upcoming debut album '
Endless Scroll'.
The 14-track album was produced by Parquet Courts’ Austin Brown and will be out on June 1st through What's Your Rupture?. It features the already unveiled debut single "
How Did This Happen?!" and their brand new single "
Can’t Knock The Hustle".
Vocalist and guitarist Ben Hozie said:
“A few years ago I found myself working at an obnoxious soft serve shoppe in Union Square with this great Jamaican guy named Steven, who was an aspiring rapper. We used to engage in strange late-night Socratic discussions and the day Jay-Z’s 'Magna Carta Holy Grail' came out he led me into a whirlpool of a syllogism that lead to the disastrous results heard on the track. Lesson learned: logic means nothing without context (in this case, Jay-Z's). Unfortunately, the premise that 'capital=beyond critique' is mostly considered sound in our artificially sweetened augmented-reality world. Care for a sample? For the advertisement of the song we wanted to make a proper pop clip, one I hope Steven appreciates. Nikki (Belfiglio) directed it and Taylor Christoffel photographed it.”
