The Fool, Warpaint's debut album, arrived on Rough Trade on October 25, 2010, and it sounds like Los Angeles after midnight: hazy, humid and a little haunted. The band cut it throughout 2010 at two studios in their hometown, Curves Studio and The Boat Studio, with Tom Biller producing and sharing the mixing desk with Andrew Weatherall and Adam Samuels. The band called it the older sibling to their earlier release Exquisite Corpse, which fits: this one is longer-limbed and more sure of itself.
Emily Kokal and Theresa Wayman trade vocals and guitars, their voices curling around each other like smoke, while Jenny Lee Lindberg's bass and Stella Mozgawa's drums lock into grooves that pull more than push. "Undertow" is the lure, a slow, sly, circling song that seems to drag you further out every time the chorus comes around.
