The Thousands

Now it’s only an EP, so let’s not shit ourselves just yet, but Warpaint are pretty f*cking awesome. Coming from the star-studded and smog-misted hills of Los Angeles, this trio of babes is making music that walks that fine line we never knew existed between Beach House‘s dreaminess and Lindstrøm‘s beatiness. And this debut, Exquisite Corpse, is six perfect songs of hazy vocals, building rhythms and what sounds like… a lot of opium.

The only downside to this release is that it only clocks in at thirty-five minutes. And while you could – obviously just in theory – listen to it on repeat for a few days… that might make everyone you know say you have an unhealthy obsession. Especially if you do it while looking at pictures of the band. And making a homemade t-shirt with their faces on it. I love you Warpaint! Oh. Um. Sorry. No, don’t do that. Just give it a few listens and get psyched for a full length you normal person you.
