STREAM UPRIGHT BEHAVIOR HERE

 

Today, Landlady is sharing its new album Upright Behavior in its entirety via PitchforkAdvance. The upcoming full-length, which is currently available for pre-order, will see its official release on July 15th on Hometapes. Stream Upright Behavior, featuring an animated expansion on Cari Vander Yacht‘s album art, HERE.
Upright Behavior‘s release has been ushered in with much early praise. In their review of the band’s most recent Brooklyn show, The New York Times noted that “there’s erudition and ingenuity in Landlady’s music.” Pitchfork praised Landlady’s music as “tuneful and wry and melodic and ambitious and seems to be gesturing towards rafters that only they see,” while KCRW observed that the tracks on Upright Behavior “satisfy one of the basic tenets of Great Songs: they rarely end up in the same place where they began.” Stereogum lauded the album’s centerpiece, saying “there are so many moving parts on ‘The Globe,’ but they come together to make one big, beautiful whole.”Consequence of Sound singled out “Girl,” noting it as “strewn with sporadic spells of glam rock theatrics and off-kilter experimental pop à la Dirty Projectors…unpredictable and jarring in the best possible way.” I Guess I’m Floating summarized the band aptly, saying “Landlady strikes a chord as the everyman’s gospel; secularly spirit-rousing but no less powerful, articulate in vision but universal in its delivery.”
 
Following an album release show in its native Brooklyn at Baby’s All Right on release day, Landlady will be touring the US throughout much of the summer and fall with Man Man, Rubblebucket and more. The current list of tour dates is below, with more to be announced soon.
