AllMusic gives the album 4 stars and a nice review (déjà vu, eh ):

Quote:
Part of Three Lobed Recordings' 20th Anniversary series and the project's debut release, Body/Dilloway/Head finds three experts in their fields making music that complements their legacies and strikes out on its own. Even the album's billing reinforces just how integral the addition of Aaron Dilloway's electronic manipulations is to this version of Kim Gordon and Bill Nace's guitar improvisations: Body/Dilloway/Head is a true dialogue between the three of them that revitalizes each of their contributions. Though it's somewhat surprising that Gordon and Dilloway haven't worked together before, the album lives up to fans' expectations of what this collaboration might bring even as it surprises. Body/Dilloway/Head isn't as assaultive as some of their previous work; instead, it challenges listeners softly with its engulfing, hallucinatory pieces. As experimental as Body/Head's other albums were, they still hinged on some kind of linear movement. With the addition of Dilloway, they play with the ways the act of recording captures the passage of time and also alters it. On the album's three pieces, the trio stretches and cuts moments in brilliantly disorienting fashion, most daringly on the opening track "Body_Erase." A humming amp builds anticipation and seemingly grounds the piece in reality, an illusion soon shattered by the appearance of blurs that may have once been instruments or vocals and gurgling, warping manipulations that imply the obliteration of time itself. When more familiar layers of feedback and guitar finally appear deep into the piece, they feel almost as alien as what came before. The rest of Body/Dilloway/Head follows suit, gradually introducing a few straightforward elements recontextualized in compelling ways. There's an almost Fahey-like lilt to the guitar figure that makes up the backbone of "Goin' Down," though the squalling loop and omnipresent drone that accompany it take it to far stranger places. "Secret Cuts" lives up to its name with its fearless use of negative space and slippery edits to Gordon's vocals (which have rarely sounded so eerie), a spiky guitar motif, and wild sound manipulations that approach the intensity of DJ scratching. Gordon and Nace never followed an obvious path with Body/Head's prior releases, but bringing in Dilloway presents entirely new possibilities that they use with fascinating, often haunting results on Body/Dilloway/Head.
