Under Your Clothes And Stuck In Your Hair

Warpaint “Send Nudes”

If you asked me what a song called “Send Nudes” by a band of women would be like I would have guessed something kinda darkly funny about some kind of awful relationship, but that’s not at all where Warpaint went with this. The title is used with some humorous irony around the silliness of the title phrase but it’s actually pretty earnest – this is a song about an intense and growing love, and even if it’s silly the request “send a couple nudes, baby” is not a joke. Warpaint play this song with jazzy nuance and a minimalism that makes your ear focus in on the details in the bass line and the percussion. The music feels as intimate and romantic as the lyrics, they really nail a spooning/whispering in ears sensation through the whole thing.
