Speedy Ortiz: Foil Deer – VINYL LP

Foil Deer is the sophomore album from Massachusetts’ Speedy Ortiz. ‘I’m not bossy, I’m the boss,’ Sadie Dupuis sings on first single ‘Raising the Skate,’ invoking in spirit one half of the Carter-Knowles clan and echoing the other’s wordplay. And wordplay makes sense, considering Dupuis spent the band’s first few years teaching writing at UMass Amherst.
