DOWNLOAD: Warpaint - Billie Holiday + Elephants

L.A.'s Warpaint make this kind of–and pardon my use of this word for a second–transcendental folk music that wraps you up like a mummy and carries you up a mountain to be buried. Maybe that is why they called their debut EP Exquisite Corpse. I get it! But seriously, the record–mixed by John Frusciante–is sprawling and gorgeous and totally the kind of shit I would play if I lived in a treehouse in the woods and was trying to communicate with the birds outside my window. It also (obviously) sounds beautiful without doing that. "Elephants" and "Billie Holiday" both appear on Exquisite Corpse, which is getting re-released through Manimal Vinyl on October 6th. Now I really want a treehouse.
Sounds like: The xx, School Of Seven Bells, Cat Power
