SPEEDY ORTIZ Announces New Album + Tour Dates
SPEEDY ORTIZ Announces New Album + Tour Dates
February 21, 2018

Today Speedy Ortiz announces its new full-length album and first release in two years. In the Fall of 2016, Speedy Ortiz went to Brooklyn's Silent Barn to record what they thought would be their third LP, but following election day they knew they had to change course. 'The songs on the album that were strictly personal or lovey dovey just didn't mean anything to me anymore--that's not the kind of music I've found healing or motivating in the past few years, and I was surprised I'd written so much of it,' explains front person Sadie Dupuis. 'Social politics and protest have been a part of our music from day one, and I didn't want to stop doing that on this album.' So the band scrapped the album they made, Dupuis wrote more songs over the course of four months, and Speedy Ortiz created the urgent, taught, and pointedly witty Twerp Verse, out April 27th on Carpark. See below for album art (which Dupuis made herself, as she has done for all of the band's previous releases) and tracklisting.
