Background and release
Body Type announced the release of their debut album, Everything Is Dangerous But Nothing's Surprising, on 10 February 2022, alongside the release of the album's first single: "Sex & Rage".[4] The single was named after the Eve Babitz novel of the same name.[5] Another single, "The Charm", was released on 28 April 2022. Vocalist and guitarist Sophie McComish said the song "[challenged] the male ego and [tried] to emulate it from a female perspective".[6] The album was released on 20 May 2022 via Poison City Records.[6] In an interview with 3RRR after the album's release, the band explored the experience of making music as women in a male-dominated music industry and how this was incorporated into the album.[7]
