BIO
Imbued with a sense of disorienting euphoria, Head Body Connector embraces abstract pop as a vessel to explore temporality, togetherness, beauty, and chaos. The latest offering from Psymon Spine (Noah Prebish, Peter Spears, and Brother Michael Rudinski) out on Northern Spy is a gritty, punchy, guitar-forward studio record from a band obsessed with production. “It’s more unhinged than anything we’ve made before,” says Prebish, adding, “Throughout the writing process, we were always asking ourselves how we could make it really fun to play live.” The end result is a little Sonic Youth, a little YMO, and basks in the glow of early 2000s New York-based dance punk and electroclash. If you were to ground it in something more current: Kevin Parker meets Spirit of the Beehive. It features contributions from Deradoorian, Liquid Liquid, and Sabine Holler, as well as recently inducted band members Zebadiah Stern and Sarah Aument.
As Psymon Spine was writing Head Body Connector in 2020, the world was experiencing extreme earthly and psychic disruption, as if we had collectively jumped from one timeline to another, stranger one. The theme of time - fractured, chopped, and screwed - is central both to the songs and album art for HBC. “Head Body Connector is our response to a world even more chaotic than usual,” says Spears, “and an exploration of the little joys, anxieties, and absurdities that world has to offer.”
