Brooklyn-based Indie Rock band Bedridden will be releasing their debut LP, Moths Strapped To Eachother’s Backs, on April 11th, 2025, via Julia’s War Recordings. The album is replete with “ruminations on dating, drugs, and survival.” The song “Etch” is out now.
The title for the album came from a message that founding member Riley received on an astrology app:
Last year I was way too reliant on other people — my partner at the time, my friends. I was strapped to them in a weird way — and flying in circles. This album is about that time.
The current incarnation of Bedridden “encompasses a patchwork of styles, influences, and friends Riley accumulated over the years.” Bedridden’s previous lineup released their first EP, Amateur Heartthrob, in 2023, a blend of Shoegaze, DIY, and Indie. That release caught the attention of Douglas Dulgarian from Philly Label Julia’s War Recordings (and They Are Gutting A Body of Water), who signed them for Moths.
Riley adds:
Some of these songs have been around for years. As opposed to Amateur Heartthrob, we attempted to blend more clean guitars into a driving sound to capture more clarity — one that also sounds live… and raw.
The songs on the album were recorded last February at Studio G Brooklyn; the album was produced by Aron Kobayashi Ritch (Momma).
