In the studio at present, apparently

Finally. Really was hoping for a new album from them this year.

source?

Can't wait!

xp: I found them making the rounds on a few fan tumblrs, like warpaintwarpaint and camya. The color pic apparently traces back to Emily's instagram.

Really cool to see her develop from sorta the 5th entry in a never-ending series of drummers into a prolific session musician.

Teresa's had some extra rig-out at recent shows.

Any info re a new album?

No, but they've changed up their website for the first time in two years and it reads "Coming Soon"

http://warpaintwarpaint.com/

Sounds like a good sign to me... maybe later this year or early next year, then?

james blake remix

Oh shit, I forgot about that.

"We're not about to play a jazz odyssey in front of a festival crowd"

"You are witnesses to the birth of Warpaint Mark II...we hope you like our new direction"

"On the keyboards...Theresa Wayman...she wrote this..."

can't tell much from this teaser, tbh

Not sure how I missed this. Not too bad. I'm unfamiliar with the original. Even if they're not really the featured artists, it's cool to see them backing these two on vocals.

Oh, and now this:

Rough Trade is excited to announce Warpaint’s new self-titled album, set for release on 20th January 2014. ‘Warpaint’ is the follow-up to the LA four-piece’s critically acclaimed debut album ‘The Fool’ (2010). ‘Warpaint’ was co-produced by Warpaint and Flood (PJ Harvey, Sigur Ros, New Order, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds and Foals), and mixed by Flood and Nigel Godrich (Radiohead).

the first time the chorus hits is full on O_O killer

looking forward to seeing em on wednesday

love it

gonna hold out to hear this until the album comes out or I'm in a better location. love this band so much

Hear a track from the LP, "Love Is to Die", below, and watch a teaser for the album directed by music video luminary Chris Cunningham. He also designed the cover art, above. Cunningham filmed and photographed the album recording process over the course of two years.

!

Super into this. I was a hesitant at first, because sounds like they went through something different in the songwriting process from the last two records, but my reservations fell away after a few listens. Hope the album has more guitars on it though. Really into these guys as a guitar band. When they resurface at the end, they sound like something straight off of Disintegration. Jenny Lee Lindberg's bass sounds great, like really well-defined and up front.

goddamn they were amazing last night

stella and jen are just 0_0 as a rhythm section, heard stella doing some lovely jaki-esque drumming along with another drummer today

I'm not really latching onto this one. I like the fuzzy synth bass, but other than that, it just kinda plods along.

Yep

the beat is so '90s (which i've been hearing coming back lately, but idk).

ie the part of trip-hop that it's best to leave behind

Yeah, it definitely has an unremarkable 90s feel. But it's track 5 on the album, so maybe it's like a palate cleanser of some sort.

Seems like a weird choice to throw out there ahead of release date though.

I like it. But I have to be in a warpaint mood to listen to it, and that involves a lot of alcohol.
