Tune-Yards – Whokill LP Vinyl Record (2021 Record Store Day Exclusive White Splatter Vinyl)

Celebrating its 10th anniversary this year, Tune-Yards’ breakthrough album “w h o k i l l” was a jolt to the system The album represents the moment their early promise and the energy of their live show collided to great effect. The album covers a formidable range of genres and styles including acoustic folk, rock, R&B, punk rock, funk, free jazz and Afrobeat.

A genre-hopping marvel, it, marks a time when everything came together into one cohesive whole, recorded in a studio and influenced heavily by Merrill Garbus’ moving to Oakland, California. She and Nate Brenner made an album that delivered on her early promise. Lyrically, Garbus explores constructs of femininity and sexuality with the threat of violence that lurks on the streets where she now lives, while the energy of their show has been translated perfectly to record.
