title? Wu-Lu | Black Vinyl LP | Loggerhead | Warp

Description:


South Londoner Wu-Lu’s stunning new album contains post-genre war dubs that speak directly to these richly troubled times. The twelve simmering tracks from the producer, multi-instrumentalist and vocalist are made of depth-charged post-punk, thrashed-up skate-park screamo, and the gauzy hip hop that Knwxledge might make if he’d got lost round the back of The Windmill on Brixton Hill. It’s laced with revvy, ethereal guitars that warp and loom like electric pylons, concrete walls of bass that power out of drill-influenced, triplet-laced drums and piano melodies that pull you through. It teleports between Factory Records in the darkest 1980s and classic albums from DJ Shadow or early ‘90s Slipknot. Loggerhead pulls from the past and reshapes it for now.Bonus CD - Three tracker with a bonus track, remix of South and a live cover version of California Dreaming at End of The Road for Line of Best Fit Sessions.
