Warpaint

Theresa Wayman. Sorry.

I forgot this band existed

s & d :: desert sessions is a thread I keep reviving and receiving very little interest, so I'm putting notice in its members' home threads.

I forgot this band existed
But I love Stella so good for her

Cool Jenny solo track

Thanks for the reminder of this good band! I previewed what was prob their first Columbus OH show:
Warpaint
Saturday @ The Summit
Plausible intrigue keeps psych sirens Warpaint’s EP, Exquisite Corpse,from getting lost in space. Input from RHCPs Frusciante and Klinghoffer may help, but mainly we’re fed cosmic musical clues and led far between the lines. “Billie Holiday” sometimes evokes Neil Young’s “The Needle and the Damage Done”, appropriately for the subject, but why does the presumably innocent “My Guy” fit just as well? Maybe because spooky fixation is thee odds-rockin’ Warpaint. “Beetles” could be about bombs, drugs, finance charges, and/or music: things suddenly too hot to handle or get rid of.

Stella!

“Made for Love”
I guess a one off single?
Stella sounds great

It sounds great! Hoping it's a sign of more to come, it's been a long five years.

Oh right, they were featured as themselves in that HBO show, which was kind of a funny pick to be that character's favorite band, but it was cute.

Finally!

New album, Radiate Like This, out May 6th. I'm really excited, it's been a long wait.

Niiice

I'm happy they decided to make another one.

Jenny Lee Lindberg put out a couple singles last year, including one with Dave Gahan on guest vocals.

I been sending dirty pics
Hope they make it to the cloud

Hoping "Stevie" is a Royal Trux cover

Holding out until my copy gets here Tuesday, but super excited to hear it.

Giving it a cursory phone speaker listen right now and definitely enjoying it. Really like Stevie, Altar, and Melting so far. Going to have to go back and listen on better speakers or headphones though. Warpaint albums usually take a few listens to open up for me.

tried to give this a listen last night and just couldn't get into it, I fear that I'm one of those people who thinks their first few releases are excellent and everything since is blah...

I take it back, I really like this one. It doesn’t vary much in mood but it fits my maudlin and unhappy spring feeling at the moment.

Looking back Champion was as good as anything they ever did. Supposedly they celebrate being together for 20 years in spring of next year
