TRACE AMOUNT + Body Stuff


TRACE AMOUNT: Body Stuff backs industrial phenom on new track "Concrete Catacomb"

NYC industrial artist Trace Amount's newest single "Concrete Catacomb" is out now. 

The track features a guest appearance by Body Stuff.

Trace Amount's monotone vocals and harsh industrial dance pulse provides the track's foundation; Body Stuff's Ryan Jones adds angelic guitars and Body Stuff's Curran Reynolds sings a few impassioned lines toward the song's end.

Interviewed by Berlin-based blog The Brvtalist, Trace Amount mastermind Brandon Gallagher says: "'Concrete Catacomb' is a bit of a 'fuck you' anthem to all of the people who left New York... This track is intense but at the same time it's meant to celebrate all of the things that make this place great, and real ones know that. Curran (Body Stuff) is one of my longest friends/connections from New York, so to have him on the track means a lot to me."

Trace Amount's latest releases include the Endless Render EP, produced by Uniform's Ben Greenberg, and the Under the Skin EP, a collab with Pig Destroyer's Blake Harrison.

Body Stuff's latest EP, Body Stuff 3, was described in the pages of The Wire as "Damned/Misfits/Cult-style goth punk, Replacements-ish doomed romanticism and dissolute synth-assisted stadium rock, abetted by a drum machine whose brutally basic patterns echo the mechanical pound of Big Black, Godflesh and early Sisters of Mercy."
