Kim Gordon’s vision of art and noise has come sharper into focus just as readily as it’s changed - a paradigm of possibility that, four decades on, still feels like a dare.
In 2019, Gordon’s debut solo LP No Home Record proved she was attuned as ever to vanguard sounds, mixing avant-rap and footwork into her sonic conceptual art. Now Gordon returns with her third solo album Play Me, which processes, in Gordon’s impressionistic way, the collateral damage of the billionaire class: the demolition of democracy, technocratic end-times fascism, the A.I.-fueled chill-vibes flattening of culture.
