If you’re gonna play postpunk, you better be good. I mean, you better really have something to say. Because it’s an easy genre to get swallowed up in. Anyone can have a strong bassline and midtempo lead guitar. But to stick to the ribs, you better have something to say. And Shopping do. The Official Body is about living in the age of Trump–feeling empowered by anger and powerless against the systemic monolith, “lonely, desperate…Discover” There’s nothing left to do but dance.
Good stuff!
