Portland's heavy music ensemble, the Body, has joined forces with Oakland's abrasive electronic group Cel Genesis for their latest collaborative album, Whole Wide World. Following successful partnerships with Dis Fig and Intensive Care, the duo has released their newest offering, which is set to drop on November 13th via Thrill Jockey.
The inspiration for Whole Wide World originated during the bands' tours together. Over a span of a few years, they meticulously crafted the record, incorporating both live and programmed drums. The album features six tracks, including the six-minute lead single "Candy Crush."
"Candy Crush" is notably less tranquil than the mobile game it's named after. The track begins with a storm of screaming vocals and ominous drones, followed by a powerful and intense rave beat. Fans will be able to listen to the track below.
The full tracklist for Whole Wide World is as follows: "Ghost," "Whole Wide World," "Negative Sum," "Memories," "To Be Eviscerated," "Candy Crush," "Remind Me," and "Everything."
