I’ve been waiting for \u003cb\u003eKim Gordon\u003c\/b\u003e to release the follow up to her debut album No Home Record since I walked out of her ear-shattering KOKO gig in 2022, and if anything, it’s surpassed my expectations. \u003ci\u003eTHE COLLECTIVE\u003c\/i\u003e is fucking bizarre in the best kind of way; lyrically fascinating and, surprisingly, contains some of the best trap to come out this decade. This record pushes her typical industrial guitar sound into a new space; a soundtrack for people like me who stare aimlessly at my phone as I walk home from work, listening to Psychedelic Orgasm AKA it slaps. - \u003ci\u003eMatt Baghurst, Rough Trade East\u003c\/i\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/blog.roughtrade.com\/gb\/uk-albums-of-the-year-so-far-2024\/\"\u003eAlbums of the Year So Far 2024\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMusician and visual artist Kim Gordon returns with her second solo album, \u003ci\u003eThe Collective \u003c\/i\u003eon Matador.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRecorded in Gordon’s native Los Angeles, \u003ci\u003eThe Collective\u003c\/i\u003e follows her 2019 full-length debut \u003ci\u003eNo Home Record\u003c\/i\u003e and continues her collaboration with producer Justin Raisen (Lil Yachty, John Cale, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Charli XCX, Yves Tumor), with additional production from Anthony Paul Lopez. The album advances their joint world building, with Raisin’s damaged, blown out dub and trap constructions playing the foil to Gordon’s intuitive word collages and hooky mantras, which conjure communication, commercial sublimation and sensory overload.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Matador","offers":[{"title":"Black LP","offer_id":50429592142155,"sku":"2174953","price":24.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Green LP","offer_id":50429593977163,"sku":"2174954","price":27.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"CD","offer_id":50429590569291,"sku":"2174952","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/KimGordon_TheCollective_4000x4000_e561ac1f_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726840425","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/de\/products\/the-collective","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
