Album Review: They Are Gutting a Body of Water, 'LOTTO'
Douglas Dulgarian has a phrase for every piece of food that just doesn’t taste like it’s been sold: “Disney bread.”
This phrase comes up on ‘trainers’, an early standout from They Are Gutting a Body of Water’s new album LOTTO, with an awareness that music can sound just like that, even when it costs nothing.
As the most pioneering band in modern shoegaze, they could capitalize on a fantastical, watered-down version of a sound that’s only getting more popular, especially on their first LP for a bigger label in NYC’s ATO Records.
They could shroud everything in glitchy layers of artifice and mutter poetic lyrics that mean nothing for the rest of their careers.
