Warpaint, an all-female desert rock band, leads the listener down desolate Californian highways with this debut album. Reminiscent of 90s alternative, the album dreamily twists and turns, driven by Lindberg’s bass lines, intricate drum patterns, and Kokal’s drifting, ghostly vocals. ‘Undertow’ adds an element of grunge with its singsong chorus devoid of emotion, followed by ‘Composure’, full of erratic time signatures and watery bass. In ‘Baby’, the band looks to their acoustic country roots, at the expense of more ‘edgy’ sounds. This is recaptured in moody track ‘Majesty’, influenced by the likes of Nirvana and Sonic Youth. Ending abruptly, ‘The Fool’ leaves the listener wanting more. It’s taken six years for Warpaint to release an album, but by next year, they will be one of the most talked about bands.
