Philadelphia’s They Are Gutting a Body of Water presents “AMERICAN FOOD,” the first single and video released via the new partnership of Julia’s War / Smoking Room / ATO Records. Led by Douglas Dulgarian, TAGABOW is “one of the most unique and compelling bands in underground music” (Stereogum). Originating as Dulgarian’s solo project, TAGABOW is now a full lineup, including bassist Emily Lofing, guitarist PJ Carroll, and drummer Ben Opatut. They have self-released a string of albums and EPs that earned praise from critics and fans, and influenced a wave of other artists.

Credited with helping revive shoegaze, the band’s experimental blend of eviscerating guitars, warped samples, and digital noise has already garnered attention from Pitchfork, FADER, NPR, and others, all through organic word-of-mouth. Dulgarian’s record label, Julia’s War, has released music from artists like MJ Lenderman, Wednesday, Feeble Little Horse, and Glixen.
