Happy Valentine’s Day! Warpaint are celebrating their 20th anniversary as a band with this new song, being released as a 7″ – available now – and with an accompanying video that condenses the glitz and glamour of two decades spent on the road spreading gorgeous dreampop across the world down into four minutes. They describe […]
Last week, Warpaint rolled out another video from Radiate Like This – a strange and compelling clip summed by by director Jim Hosking thusly: ’Hips’ has a scuttling intensity to it. It sounds like someone desperately trying to find something. Or at least that’s what it seemed to me. I listened to it repeatedly and […]
Uber-producer Nigel Godrich recently revived his From The Basement web series, which captured full-length sessions from various bands who passed through his studio, and one of the first new ones is from Warpaint, presumably recorded this past May when they were in the UK touring their latest record Radiate Like This.

One of the highlights, for me, is Warpaint’s take on the opening track of the band’s second album, […]
Maybe I spent so much time invested in Warpaint leading up to the release of their debut album The Fool back in October 2010 – I saw them four times in the six months prior, loved Exquisite Corpse to death – that when it came out and I wasn’t bowled over, I lost interest. As […]
I was going to use this image on another post but went in another direction with that. But since I had already gone into my photo archives and re-processed it and hey – it’s my blog I can do what I want – I’ll just put it up on its own. This is Jenny Lee […]
