“‘Eat For Peace’ is the first song on Alone Together. It’s the first message we communicate, one that defines this record as well as who we are “Radical love compels me to fight.” It’s the credo.” – Julian Cashwan Pratt.
Alone Together serves as the official follow-up to the band’s celebrated 2022 album Trouble The Water, and bears themes of praxis and putting belief into action. Alone Together is not about atmosphere, but about direct communication, a call to galvanize ourselves and the people around us. Working alongside producers Klas Åhlund (Robyn, Ghost) and Kenneth Blume III (Geese, Fcukers), Show Me The Bodyhas recontextualised their core language into something with more focus, urgency, and clarity than ever before. Alone Together is not about atmosphere but about direct communication, a call to galvanize ourselves and the people around us.
Bones of Show Me The Body’s fourth full-length album formed first in their Corpus studio, in the basement of the building that also serves as the New York City collective’s headquarters and the home in which frontman Julian Cashwan Pratt lives with his young family. Writing the album in the wake of the birth of his daughter. Alone Together brings the band’s ethos of resilience in the darkest moments into startling focus, making for the trailblazers’ most harrowing and joyous output to date.
Klas Åhlund, one of the album’s producers, came over from Sweden to visit Pratt and Steed in Queens and gave a blunt assessment of the band’s demos. “He caught me at me becoming an adult, so I didn’t tell him to fuck off.” And so, Pratt said, the band sat with Åhlund’s one critical piece of advice: “There’s certain parts of our music that are distinctly Show Me The Body. And he was like, ‘those parts only your band could do? You should just do that all the time. All the parts that sound like everybody else, you should just do less.'” With this ringing in their minds, they soon decamped to the California studio of Kenneth Blume III, where the band and their new odd-couple producers took that core sound to unheard-of heights.
During the making of the album, Show Me the Body’s Julian Cashwan Pratt launched a series of conversations in which he speaks with “a few of my best friends, creative peers, and mentors about life, loss, family, community, art, and praxis.” The series is called “Alone Together” and was directed by Nicolas Heller (New York Nico). Episodes 1, 2, 3, & 4 with Dracula O. / Chi, Kasie Kirkland AKA Yung Mayne, Jaylen Strong, and Yo Chill are all available on the Show Me the Body YouTube page and Spotify.
This summer, the band will make the rounds in the UK and Europe, playing select festival dates and supporting Deafheaven on a run of shows before embarking on their North American tour in the fall.
