Kim Gordon shares new music and announces new album ‘Play Me’
Successor to The Collective arrives March 13 via Matador Records.
Today marks the release of the single “Not Today,” offering the first glimpse into Kim Gordon’s upcoming album, Play Me. The new record does not function exactly as a sequel to its predecessor, but rather as an evolution of her work, once again produced by Justin Raisen. According to Gordon, the dynamic between the two has progressed - Raisen knows her better now, not only on a personal level, but also on the technical space, allowing him to leverage her artistic vision.
On the new single, Kim Gordon’s voice appears far looser than usual, a trait that can be expected across the rest of the album. The album’s creative process was more immediate, focused, and confident, centered on themes that continue to trouble the artist: the collateral damage inflicted by the billionaire class, democratic erosion, the inevitability of artificial intelligence, and a culture of convenience that flattens art.
