Warpaint

In W. DC Saturday night

I'm still utterly addicted to the track "billie holiday"

Fuck it. Where's my shit?

saw some interview with them from a few months back where they said the next record will be more 'cohesive.'

they're playing here in 4 weeks which is a v big deal because whenever any band comes to hawaii it is a v big deal

I think that is the last show on their tour. Go see them if you can!

<3 this

Picked up Exquisite Corpse today; really, really good. Would happily listen to album after album of this band.

I heard EC first too. Then I heard the Fool and drank til I passed out.

Jesus Christ, I am absolutely crazy about this band.

They are a "girl band" as much as the smiths were a boy band... Couldn't be less relevant!

The Smiths were TOTALLY a boy band. Good grief.

3 Howards and a Robbie

"Jesus Christ, I am absolutely crazy about this band."

no shit they are quite addictive

I haven't listened to the album in a while, and this thread has reminded me that I must do so soon! Great band. Can't wait to see what their next album is going to be like.

yes yes yes

I'm growing to like The Fool, even though it's darker and slower in places. Exquisite Corpse is a wall-to-wall banger though.

digging through warpaint related tumblrs today. I came across this tidbit, which made me think of that shitty Dusted review that said that Warpaint weren't good because they weren't the Slits.

Viv Albertine (The Slits) & Jenny Lee

“Just recorded a track with Jenny Lee Lindberg from Warpaint. I had a wistful guitar part which I played to her with a drummer called Marcus who I only met that day, so none of us had met before the studio date. She just sat down and started playing along. A lovely understated, counterpoint to the guitar. She really anchored the piece. She only had a few hours off between shows, I was honoured that she spent them recording with me. Now I am going to write some new lyrics to go with the music as the original words don’t suit it anymore. It sounds beautiful – I’ll keep you posted”.

Love, Viv

Warpaint weren't good because they weren't the Slits.

tbh this is the problem with many non-all-female bands

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

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.

who I can't figure out who he is.

Stella tears it up

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

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?
