Partition is back with the sludgy new single "And A Bruise Can Come From Good Times Too," an almost antithesis to the band's "debut" single released last month.
With its ethereal fuzzed-out guitars and hypnotic drums, bandleader Taylor Nice takes us along as they describe a relationship that soured. Taylor uses the song's title as a lead-in to the chorus where they layout the score. Partition draws heavily on the macabre psychedelic rock of the grunge era. You feel uneasy as "And A Bruise Can Come From Good Times Too" moves seamlessly between its dissonant single-note guitar lines and clattering full band arrangements.
Along with the single, Partition released a lyric video full of startling religious iconography, which is in line with Taylor's personal brand of chaotic irreverence. The video cuts between shots of Taylor bleeding from the nose and religious figures with blood on them. It's uniquely Partition, and it's totally on-brand with the theme of their debut record Prodigal Gun.
You can watch the video below along with purchasing the song on Bandcamp.
Trigger warning: the video for "And A Bruise Can Come From Good Times Too" has bright flashing lights.
