bodies: all the songs i know about fire
bodies is led by vocalist and guitarist daniel ward, alongside Aldo Thomas (vocals, guitar, saxophone), Ruby Lee (drums, drum machine, sampler), Ben Sendy-Smithers (bass) and a revolving cast of collaborators. In a statement, ward summarised the record as a collection of songs that act as “a prayer or ritual on certain fires, speaking to desire, fear, love, death, time, mysteries.”
Dinosaur City described all the songs i know about fire as an album devoted to “the unending circle of time, and a prayer for precious attention. An ode to temporality and impermanence and conviction alike.”
