The new record by People Get Ready is called 'Physiques'. It ramps up the band's fierce, joyful, heedless interplay; their love of big pop songs and trancelike slow jams and songs that fall somewhere in-between and, above all, their devotion to pleasure. 'Physiques' was made during three months of tracking with Deerhoof's Greg Saunier at the Clocktower Gallery in downtown Manhattan. Founded by Alanna Heiss, who also created what would become MoMA PS1, the Clocktower Gallery was one of the first entrants in New York's 'alternative art space' movement in the 1970s. Invited to the space by curator Joe Ahearn (Showpaper, Silent Barn), People Get Ready were among the very last artists to work at this pioneering art space, which is now being renovated into condos. It would not be wrong to take 'Physiques' as a kind of tribute to and last gasp from a more lovely time in New York, when art ran free in downtown Manhattan.
