Matthew Dear’s 2012 album, Beams, is due a reissue from Ghostly, which will collect together the original album, the tracks from the Headcage EP that preceded it, a whole host of remixes, b-sides from the Her Fantasy 12″, and some unreleased tracks. One such new unheard track is “She’s Just That Way,” which you can listen to below. Complete with major-key staccato piano and the usual cut up effected vocals from Dear, it makes for a track that seems quaintly upbeat and summery, even though it was culled from an album which delved into brighter spaces. Listen to “She’s Just That Way” below, and check out the tracklisting to Beams (Complete Edition) below, which will be released on June 17th.
