Self Defense Family
You Are Beneath Her
Self Defense Family are one of the most interesting bands in contemporary independent music. Evolving from a sound influenced by revolution summer and Dischord bands, in recent years the band has grown into a new phase where they have explored the post-hardcore territory of Lungfish and Wilderness and altcountry reminiscent of the Drive-By Truckers. You Are Beneath Her is the first of two records Iron Pier is releasing for the band that feature longtime "family member" Caroline Corrigan who takes over vocal duties on this record, lending a more accessible side to the band. You Are Beneath Her consists of four songs sung solely by Corrigan: three are alternate versions ones from the You Are Beneath Me (Deathwish) sessions. The fourth song was re-recorded soon after. All four songs have been remastered by Carl Saff in 2013 for this release.
