There was an older woman who was also waiting on the track and she reminded me of my late Grandmother who I had not thought of in a while. She passed away of alzheimers when I was in high school.

The songs on Moveys took shape while on tour with Alex G in 2019, after the band scrapped an album\u2019s-worth of material following Massey\u2019s diagnosis with Lyme disease and chronic Mono. The obstacles only continued from there, as Massey\u2019s parents were soon after in a severe car crash&#8230;one week before COVID-19 shut the country down. Full of blistering energy and emotional catharsis, this compelling 10-track collection highlights the band&#8217;s resourcefulness and resilience to come together during unthinkable times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8216;Moveys&#8217; is out now via Winspear &#8211; Download, stream, or purchase&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/prescriptionpr.cmail20.com\/t\/j-l-ayulux-ejlihlkhu-h\/\">here<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i2.cmail20.com\/ei\/j\/36\/10F\/084\/033617\/csfinal\/Moveys-990a280a2803cf3c.jpg\" alt=\"Slow Pulp Moveys cover artwork\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>\u2018Moveys\u2019 track listing<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>1.

Movey<br><br>Slow Pulp&#8217;s tough adaptability is something that has formed over time thanks to the unbreakable bond of lifelong friendship. The band\u2019s roots can be traced back to elementary school, with Leeds, Mathews and Stoehr performing in bands together since the sixth grade while growing up in Madison. Massey was later invited to join their new project, Slow Pulp, in 2017. <em>&#8220;I can&#8217;t describe a level of closeness with other people like we have. Having lived together, toured together, worked together, and written together, we learned so much about each other so quickly,&#8221;<\/em> says Massey.<br><br>Slow Pulp first started working on new songs in the Spring of 2019, immediately after the release of their EP, \u2018Big Day,\u2019 before scrapping the material following\u2019s Massey\u2019s Mono and Lyme diagnosis.&nbsp;&#8220;<em>When we started writing this record, I had been experiencing so much fatigue and getting sick a lot and I didn&#8217;t know what it was,\u201d<\/em> she explains. &#8220;<em>The diagnosis validated a lot of what I was feeling. I got tools for how to take care of myself better.\u201d <\/em>For Massey, taking care of herself meant more than just addressing her physical needs. <em>&#8220;The way that I internalize trauma is I will hold it in and not process it for a very long time, but writing songs is the one place where I can&#8217;t hide from myself. It just comes out whether or not I want it to or if I&#8217;m ready for it to. Figuring out how to write together, as a band, was like me learning how to take care of myself and learning how to communicate better.&#8221;<\/em>&nbsp;<br><br>When the band toured with Alex G in the fall of 2019, new songs started to take shape. However, in March, as Slow Pulp was finishing the songs and starting to realize a full-length effort, Massey&#8217;s parents got in a severe car accident forcing her to pause recording and return home to Madison and take care of them. A week later, the COVID-19 pandemic hit. &#8220;<em>I wasn&#8217;t able to come back to Chicago for a while. How were we going to finish this apart from each other?&#8221;<\/em> thought Massey.&nbsp;<br><br>With Stoehr leading engineering, mixing, and production duties, the band managed to finish the record in an isolated, post-COVID world. &#8220;<em>Thankfully most instrumentals were already written. Alex and Henry and I were all able to do that separately from a studio space that we rent in Chicago. It required a lot of FaceTime which was no substitute for us being in the room together,&#8221; <\/em>says Mathews. As Massey&#8217;s father Michael recovered from his injuries, the two worked on completing her vocal takes from his home studio. On top of engineering all but two vocal tracks, Michael Massey also contributed the instrumental piano track <em>Whispers (In the Outfield)<\/em>.&nbsp;<br><br>After a handful of singles and EPs, \u2018Moveys\u2019 marks a turning point for Slow Pulp, not just as musicians, but as friends and bandmates. The extremely untraditional circumstances of the album forced the quartet to break old habits, and learn to be both better songwriters and friends. The result is a marked departure from the ramshackle coziness of their earlier output, with a more thoughtful sound that will draw you in on first listen.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br>The word \u201cmoveys\u201d is multi-faceted for Slow Pulp. It\u2019s a made-up word, and a title of the album\u2019s bonus track. It is an invitation to dance. It is a wink at the cross-country nature of the album\u2019s songwriting process, while the bandmates were literally on the move touring, sheltering in place, and going through major life changes. But, mostly, it\u2019s an inside joke. Listening to these warm, dynamic and welcoming songs, it&#8217;s easy to feel like you&#8217;re a part of it too.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Wisconsin-bred and Chicago-based band&nbsp;Slow Pulp&nbsp;&#8211; Emily Massey (vocals\/guitar), Alexander Leeds (bass), Theodore Mathews (drums), and Henry Stoehr (guitar) &#8211; released their self-produced debut album a <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/cultureaddicts.com\/?p=35211\" title=\"Slow Pulp share video for &#8216;Track&#8217;\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":35212,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"_wpas_customize_per_network":false},"categories":[22,23,28,29,30,5812],"tags":[9528,9527,9611],"class_list":["post-35211","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-guitar-rock","category-indie","category-music","category-music-video","category-new-release","category-shoegaze","tag-moveys","tag-slow-pulp","tag-track"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/6B260715-12AE-407F-BA74-2F404DC8B3BF.jpeg?fit=759%2C619&ssl=1","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p2B2TV-99V","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":37103,"url":"https:\/\/cultureaddicts.com\/?p=37103","url_meta":{"origin":35211,"position":0},"title":"Slow Pulp share new single &#8216;Iowa&#8217;","author":"cultureaddicts","date":"July 10, 2021","format":false,"excerpt":"Chicago-based band\u00a0Slow Pulp\u00a0- Emily Massey (vocals\/guitar), Alexander Leeds (bass), Theodore Mathews (drums), and Henry Stoehr (guitar) - released their remarkable debut album\u00a0\u2018Moveys\u2019 in the Autumn of last year to critical acclaim from the likes of The New York Times, NPR, NYLON, The Guardian, Stereogum, The Line of Best Fit and\u2026","rel":"","context":"In &quot;guitar rock&quot;","block_context":{"text":"guitar rock","link":"https:\/\/cultureaddicts.com\/?cat=22"},"img":{"alt_text":"Slow Pulp press photo","src":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/66AF28FF-A011-4DFC-BA94-A504867DECD9.png?fit=727%2C506&ssl=1&resize=350%2C200","width":350,"height":200,"srcset":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/66AF28FF-A011-4DFC-BA94-A504867DECD9.png?fit=727%2C506&ssl=1&resize=350%2C200 1x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/66AF28FF-A011-4DFC-BA94-A504867DECD9.png?fit=727%2C506&ssl=1&resize=525%2C300 1.5x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/66AF28FF-A011-4DFC-BA94-A504867DECD9.png?fit=727%2C506&ssl=1&resize=700%2C400 2x"},"classes":[]},{"id":35030,"url":"https:\/\/cultureaddicts.com\/?p=35030","url_meta":{"origin":35211,"position":1},"title":"Slow Pulp share new track &#8216;Montana&#8217;","author":"cultureaddicts","date":"October 9, 2020","format":false,"excerpt":"Wisconsin-bred and Chicago-based band\u00a0Slow Pulp\u00a0are readying their self-produced debut album, and have so far shared three standout singles in At It Again, Idaho, and last month's Falling Apart. \u00a0 Now, they\u2019ve shared one more single from the upcoming record prior to its release, the soft and shimmering Montana.
