The Body release new song ‘Tied Up and Locked In’

THE BODY have released a brand new song!

The new song, titled Tied Up and Locked In, is taken from the experimental metal duo’s upcoming new album, I’ve Seen All I Need To See, which is scheduled to be released later this month.

Listen to Tied Up and Locked In here: 

On I’ve Seen All I Need To See, THE BODY, together with engineer Seth Manchester of Machines With Magnets, capture the complexities of distorted sound in stunning detail. The album was mastered in the UK by Matt Colton [APHEX TWIN, NEW ORDER, SUN 0)))), SUMAC]. On harnessing the album’s unique approach to distortion, recording engineer Seth Manchester comments, “it’s a meditation on distortion. We tried pushing the limits of each piece of gear in the studio to hear what its breaking point sounded like and then recorded it – even feeding the console back on itself during one particular live take.”

Mastering engineer Matt Colton adds, “the distortion has this ability to envelope you, and not push you away. It has this strange kind of beautiful timbre…once you give into the sheer power of it, and let it take you on a ride then it becomes this whole other kind of sonic experience.”
