Today, Kim Gordon released “Hungry Baby”, the latest track from No Home Record, her highly anticipated solo debut due out this Friday, October 11 on Matador Records. “Hungry Baby” builds a wall of discordant sound around Gordon’s immediately recognizable vocals, a potent reminder of her massive influence over alternative music. No Home Record is already being heralded as “provocative, challenging and effortlessly cool” and “a superb genre-spanning solo debut.” The album is available for pre-order here. Additionally, those who purchase the CD or LP at Amoeba Hollywood (6400 Sunset Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90028) on release day this Friday can celebrate with Gordon in-person with an exclusive in-store signing event starting at 7pm, all information here.
In advance of the album’s release, the legendary musician and multi-disciplinary artist collaborated with Berlin-based artist and filmmaker Loretta Fahrenholz to create a short video series. The collection includes the official videos for “Murdered Out” and “Sketch Artist”, as well as shorts for “Paprika Pony” and “Don’t Play It” with more to be released. Gordon also created her own “video” for lead single “Air BnB” which you can see HERE.
No Home Record was produced largely by Justin Raisen (Charli XCX, Ariel Pink, Sky Ferreira) at Sphere Ranch in Los Angeles, along with contributions from Shawn Everett (Jim James, The Voidz, The War on Drugs) and composer/filmmaker Jake Meginsky (L’appel Du Vide). Gordon’s solo debut album’s title is a nod to the French-Belgian director Chantal Akerman’s film No Home Movie.
