Former Sonic Youth bass player, singer, visual and alternative artist Kim Gordon, revealed her new song and video on yesterday. It is a collaboration with producer Justin Raisen and Stella Mozgawa on drums (Warpaint, L.A.), and Kim says: ‘I met the uber talented Justin Raisen, the producer, offhandedly. He was working on a project with another artist and kept sending me tracks to listen to with the possibility of getting me to sing on one of them. When I learned I could make up my own lyrics, I was in. With the remaining bits of unused vocals, he started what would be ‘Murdered Out‘.’Stella Mozgawa (Warpaint) plays drums based on the trashy drums that Justin first laid down. I went back and did more vocals and guitar and we mixed it’.
I say it sounds great, dirty, fuzzy, alternative!
