Priests Bodies and Control and Money and Power

Washington, D.C.-based post-punk quartet Priests formed in late 2011, creating rawkus blasts of noisy, politically charged punk fronted by vocalist Katie Alice Greer with guitarist G.L. Jaguar, drummer Daniele Daniele, and bassist Taylor Mulitz. The project was the first musical venture for most of the players (though both Greer and Daniele would later join the revolving-door cast of fellow D.C. punk intellectuals Chain & the Gang), and the newly formed Priests quickly recorded a demo-like cassette and began touring, first locally and then across the States, quickly gaining a reputation for their frenetic live show. A 7" single, a second cassette, and a few compilation appearances followed before a proper debut album surfaced in the form of 2014's Bodies and Control and Money and Power. The album was recorded with production help from Black Eyes member Hugh McElroy, and more touring followed its release.
