Albums of the Year 2024 - Number 37
I mean come on - this is as good as it gets. I’ve been waiting for Kim Gordon 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. THE COLLECTIVE 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. - Matt Baghurst, Rough Trade East | Albums of the Year So Far 2024
Musician and visual artist Kim Gordon returns with her second solo album, The Collective on Matador.
Recorded in Gordon’s native Los Angeles, The Collective follows her 2019 full-length debut No Home Record 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.
