Bush Tetras Announce First Album in 11 Years, Release New Song

New York City band Bush Tetras have announced their first new LP in 11 years. It’s titled They Live in My Head, and it lands July 28 via Wharf Cat. Listen to the lead single ‘Things I Put Together’ below, and scroll down for the album’s cover art and tracklist.

The band began working on the record around the release of their career-spanning box set Rhythm and Paranoia: The Best of Bush Tetras. Right before it came out in 2021, the group’s original drummer Dee Pop, passed away. They Live in My Head was produced by Sonic Youth’s Steve Shelley, who also plays drums on the album.

“We just went into the rehearsal space and things just would fall right into place,” the band’s Pat Place said in a press release. “We’d just start playing and the next thing would happen and we’d know where to take it.”

“We thought a lot about memories from 1979 in New York City,” Cynthia Sley added. “It’s a reflection of growing up together, what we were eating, what we were doing, weird little things people probably won’t get. But that’s cool.”
