Indie Rock Trio June Body Embrace Bittersweet Endings on "Agree to Stop" from New Album 'Last Everythings'
From the moment that guitarist/vocalist Connor James and bassist Alex Callaghan began rehearsing what would become the first June Body songs, they unknowingly set into motion a new wave of Halifax rock lore. They are joined by drummer Matt Schofield to round out their fully-formed rock trio. Swaying between the punchiness of modern rock and the nostalgic tones of '90s alternative, June Body's rawness and forthright lyrical delivery throws back to the likes of Death Cab for Cutie and The Weakerthans.
Their new full-length album, Last Everythings, sounds like June Body in their truest form. It's a culmination of the band's growth on a musical and personal level, and is their first outing to feature the post-production prowess of an indie rock legend, Jace Lasek (Land of Talk, Besnard Lakes).
The focus track, "Agree to Stop," is about Connor's seven-year relationship coming to an end. Even though he and his partner were both still in love with each other, there was this pervasive feeling of understanding that the end was what was right for both of them. It was such a difficult experience to have to agree that they'd be better apart.

The LP was inspired by the conceptual vision of every song telling the story of the end of something, hence the title: Last Everythings. The band wanted to create this snowglobe of the events before, during, and after a breakup with simple, domestic imagery. By the end of the record, the hope is that this world becomes clear to the listener, and that anyone can inject their own story into it.
