Let Tonight Pass Us By
Filed Under Music Mix Up
There is something about the Los Angeles band Warpaint that I am drawn to… Maybe it is their creative unpredictability? Just when you think the song is taking one direction, suddenly they incorporate another musical layer to the mix. It is this, along with the lovely melodic vocals of Emily Kokal, Theresa Wayman and Jenny Lee Lindberg, that attracts me. There are a few stand out tracks on the debut full length album, Undertow, Shadows and Majesty were by far my favorites. Definitely a band to keep your eye on… It will be interesting to see how their sound will grow, as it sounds promising.

I so agree. Their music is incredible. I was lucky to catch them play in Glasgow last Friday night and it was sublime – their live performance was so self-assured and happy. They clearly get on really well as individuals, as well as a ‘band’. And, you know, amongst all the effects and guitars they really do have the ‘beats’ as well – people were dancing like crazy! :)
You get to see all the good shows. :-)
Ooh I have this CD sat in a pile waiting to be listened to. Looking forward to it now!
Mmmmm LOVING this.
