Shoegazeshine

Am just now discovering the shoegaze loveliness of L.A.'s Warpaint, even though their EP Exquisite Corpse came out last summer. A quick glance at Skreemr shows that most bloggahs fell for the cutesy B.i.l.l.i.e. H.o.l.l.i.d.a.y.  But the real beauty is in the weep-inducing harmonies of Stars, calling to mind one of my favorite bands of yesteryear, Lush. It's cool, they own it:

Where does the EP title, Exquisite Corpse, come from?

From sad things...maybe you can fill in the blanks.

Warpaint Billie Holliday and Stars mp3s were here.

Warpaint will be playing the Natural History Museum show on February 5th with Yeasayer that I wrote about the other day. Fuunnn. I heard that the Natural History Museum shows, like the recent one with Atlas Sound, sell out pretty fast so get those tickets now.
