The follow-up to 2015's Foil Deer, Speedy Ortiz's latest indie rock missive is prompted by a tidal wave of voices, no longer silent on the heart they've endured from society's margins. But like many of these truth-tellers, songwriter, guitarist and singer Sadie Dupuis scales the careful line between what she calls being "outrageous and practical" in order to be heard at all. Twerp Verse was tracked in Brooklyn DIY space Silent Barn, mixed by Omaha legend Mike Mogis and mastered by Grammy-nominated engineer Emily Lazar. The record pulls from the most elastic pop moments in Squeeze's Argybargy and the seesawing synth-rock of Deerhoof and the Rentals. Tuned smartly to the political opacity of the present,Twerp Verse rings clear as a bell. Vinyl comes with a download card housed in a single sleeve.
