Warpaint

Warpaint weave intricate guitar lines, hypnotic vocals and driving post punk rhythms into gorgeous, sprawling songs that skirt the line between psychedelia and intimacy. Both live and on record, Warpaint sound like they’re channeling something truly otherworldly, and mystical. Rough Trade will release their long-awaited debut full-length album The Fool on October 26th, 2010. Combining dreamy ambiance with razorblade-sharp lyrics, the foursome ? Emily Kokal and Theresa Wayman on guitar, Jenny Lee Lindberg on bass, and Stella Mozgawa on drums ? trade off vocal duties, which adds dimension and textures to the group’s already rich sound.

Recorded in LA,The Fool was produced by Tom Biller (Beck, Karen O, Liars), with further mixes from Andrew Weatherall (New Order, Primal Scream, Bjork) and Adam Samuels (John Frusciante, Daniel Lanois). The Fool follows their Exquisite Corpse EP, released in 2009
