∩  Hamilton, Ontario indie~shoegaze outfit Basement Revolver are back with their sophomore album, Embody.
∩  The new album sees Basement Revolver grappling with themes of identity, sexuality, faith, and mental illness. Using a deeper sound and crisper production than their debut, the band explores new sonic and thematic territory on Embody. The record follows their debut album, Heavy Eyes, which merged their hardcore~inspired indie sound with dream pop. Now, Basement Revolver are cementing a new sound.
Embody “is an album of friendship, of working out identity together, and making deeply personal art.” In addition to the album, Basement Revolver have shared a lyric video for their focus track, “Dissolve.”
∩  “Dissolve” is “about creating a life together, through the beautiful and the bitter,” according to a release. “It is about looking into your partner’s eyes, and feeling fully known. It is about falling more and more in love each and every day even though it feels impossible to love someone more. It is about doing life together.”
In addition to “Dissolve,” Embody features previously released singles “Transatlantic” and “Skin.”
∩  “Skin” is a particularly poignant tune that sees guitarist and vocalist Chrisy Hurn~Morrison singing of the struggles she feels with her body. The track helped Hurn~Morrison learn to love the parts of herself that she’s often scrutinized.
∩  “Desperate to feel like her body was okay or good enough, Chrisy was perched on the edge of the dock when this song began tumbling out,” a press release explains. “[It’s] the first time she has explicitly written about the struggles she feels with her body.”
