Australian Post-Punk 4-piece Body Type has returned with new song, “And What Else?” alongside an official video. They have also announced special live Australian dates.

After a brief break during which they tended to their own projects, band members Sophie McComish (vocals and guitar), Annabel Blackman (vocals and guitar), Cecil Coleman (drums) and Georgia Wilkinson-Derums (vocals and bass) reconvened in 2024 and got to work.

Released via King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard’s p(doom) Records, “And What Else?”is a “about the pleasures and pitfalls of fishing for compliments.”

Annabel Blackman comments:

The big chorus is a cathartic cry out against feeling insecure in a relationship, those mental twists your brain makes when statements of adoration make you feel sceptical and unworthy, but simultaneously hungry for more of that sweet stuff.

Body Type has toured the globe extensively sharing stages with Foo Fighters, Sleater-Kinney, Warpaint, The Pixies, Fontaines D.C., Big Thief, Cate Le Bon, POND, Unknown Mortal Orchestra, Frankie Cosmos, Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever, Wolf Alice, King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard, DZ Deathrays and more. Their London show featured a cameo from Punk musician Gina Birch (The Raincoats).
