Enjoyed the cardboard car views ofCultural Consumer IIIand in the mood for more shenanigans? You are in luck. NYC’s BODEGA just released their third album, Our Brand Could Be Yr Life, out now on Chrysalis Records. Delving deep into consumer culture and how it bleeds through to all areas of our lives.

The lead single off the album, ‘Tarkovski,’ catches your attention instantly with expert strumming on an iconic double-necked guitar.

“You never can stop to seek thematics in a plot, yet what mirrors show you better keep exposed, and that’ll take you to the zone”

Lyrics from BODEGA’s ‘Tarkovski’

When asked about the meaning behind the lead single ‘Tarkovski’, Joint lead vocalist Ben Hozie says:

“Theory never really gets at what you want and applying theory to the chaotic practice of art making (while still useful and essential) is like skiing down a wild slope.”

‘City Is Taken’ is another banger, showing that BODEGA’s energy is literally limitless.

Enjoying the album? Hear it live on BODEGA’s “BRAND ON THE RUN” tour. BODEGA will be kicking off the tour in Brooklyn New York at Baby’s All Right. Buy Tickets here. Not in North America? No worries, just wait for a UK headlining tour this October.
