London experimental spoken word and electronics duo Bag marry visceral poetry with exploratory production on their mesmerizing new release, This House is a Body, to achieve beguiling, occasionally screwy and occasionally dreamy sonics."This album functions as a floor plan, a house in itself, collecting and containing the ecosystems of multiple rooms," write Bag - Canadian artist and poet Jody DeSchutter and London producer Daniel Allison. "The roles we play can be defined by the room we are in; and it can be near impossible to tell what room we are in without looking from outside. This album maps out a number of rooms which hold such relations, memories, or experiences and builds them all into a single house, a single body."Formed from Allison's headspinning, depth-mining production for synthesis, field recording, and acoustic instrumentation, and DeSchutter's lysergic and prophetic spoken word, the palette of This House is a Body can turn on a dime from claustrophobia and dread to hyperreal dream sequence, illuminated in sunstreamed glory in places and dripping with basement effluvia in others. Throughout, words, meaning, and imagery all dissolve into an architecture of alternately familiar and unknowable sound.
