Interlay – snow covers your insides
Chicago-based post-hardcore noise rock band Interlay release their third EP snow covers your insides, a collection fueled by courage, feminine rage and raw power.
snow covers your insides includes the previously released singles “Silo” and “Plastic Stars.”
The forthcoming project, which takes its name from Sylvia Plath poetry, sees the group embrace contradiction: melodic without sacrificing intensity, abrasive without losing intimacy, and firmly rooted in the DIY ethos that has guided the band from its start. This time, bandleader Alexandria Ortgiesen (vocals/lyrics/guitar) is accompanied by a new, fully Chicago-based band featuring Nate Dixon (bass) and Brent Favata (drums).
Ortgiesen credits mixing engineer Doug Malone for the project’s sound, arrangements and their dynamic live show. “Beyond engineering the sessions, Doug played an active role in developing the record’s sonic identity, helping the band refine guitar tones, arrangements, and dynamics while preserving the immediacy that defines Interlay’s live performances.”
For the last six years, Interlay have been captivating listeners and live audiences across the country, at SXSW and on college campuses. They’ve sold out shows across the Midwest and NYC, and have shared stages with bands like Wednesday, She’s Green, Hotline TNT, Deerhoof and more. With their third project, the band aims to continue to solidify themselves as a leading voice in post-punk and hardcore, with fiery femme-angst at their core.
