Body/Head (Kim Gordon/Bill Nace) announce new LP & tour, share a track

After revealing the release date earlier this year, Body/Head — the improvisational duo of Kim Gordon and Bill Nace — have officially announced their new album, The Switch, due on July 13 via Matador. Like with their 2013 debut, Gordon and Nace worked with engineer Justin Pizzoferrato but this is less of a rock record and more of a subtle, unsettling experience. You can listen to the dark, mysterious “You Don’t Need,” and check out the LP’s artwork and tracklist, below.

Kim and Bill will take Body/Head on tour in July, kicking things off on release night at Los Angeles’ Masonic Lodge, and they’ll play Brooklyn’s Elsewhere Hall on July 19. Tickets for Elsewhere are on sale now. Body/Head also play Kingston’s BSP on July 20 (tickets). All dates — East Coast shows with Gunn-Truscinski Duo (aka Steve Gunn and John Truscinski) — are listed below.
