Chicago trio Horsegirl announce their debut record, Versions of Modern Performance, out June 3rd on Matador / Remote Control, and present charged lead single/video, ‘Anti-glory’.
Following last year’s one-off ‘Billy’, lead single ‘Anti-glory’ is elastic and propulsive, entrancing listeners with a central call: “Dance / Dance / Dance / Dance / With me”. The accompanying video, directed by Erin Vassilopoulous, exudes confidence, putting Horsegirl front and center, their uncanny ability to layer sound on full display.
“We wrote Anti-glory almost by accident, while messing around with an old song during rehearsal. The song fell into place immediately, and looking back, we have no idea how we wrote it,” the band explains. “As always, this song and album are for Chicago, our friends, our friend’s bands, everyone who can play the guitar, and everyone who can’t play the guitar.”
