After Warpaint's Exquisite Corpse was released on the Manimal Vinyl label in 2009, their small but devoted Los Angeles fanbase grew enormously. Warpaint has toured with several bands since then, including The xx and Akron/Family, probably the two best representatives of their genre-bending tendencies. The Fool is an exercise in everything haunting; I have heard few records this beautiful and blood curdling at the same time. Although postulations about the album of the year are typically imprudent and even at times overwrought, Warpaint stand a good chance of making their mark not only on this year, but, assuming that they keep releasing music like this, the coming decade.
Your brown eyes are my blue skies.
They light up the rivers that the birds fly over.
