Nilufer Yanya - Miss Universe - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Nilüfer Yanya runs head first into the depths of emotional vulnerability on her anticipated sophomore record PAINLESS. Recorded between a basement studio in Stoke Newington and Riverfish Music in Penzance, the record is a more sonically direct effort, narrowing her previously broad palette to a handful of robust ideas. Yanya's debut album Miss Universe (2019) earned a Best New Music tag from Pitchfork and saw support tours with Sharon Van Etten, Mitski and The XX.

Vinyl LP pressing. The INTERRUPTERS are an L.A. based four-piece bound by their rebel spirit and deep love of punk, rock, ska and 2 Tone. They make super high-energy rock -n-roll that's equal parts catchy and confrontational. Their third album, Fight The Good Fight, was produced by Rancid's Tim Armstrong and released on his Hellcat imprint for Epitaph Records. The album features front-woman Aimee Interrupter, guitarist Kevin Bivona, bassist Justin Bivone and drummer Jesse Bivona, spitting out lyrics that take on matters as thorny as family, friendship, martial law and loyalty, while churning out bouncing rock-steady rhythms and snarly guitar riffs.

Nilüfer Yanya returns with her highly anticipated follow up to 2022's critically acclaimed album PAINLESS. My Method Actor is yet another example of Yanya's authenticity and innate creativity that effortlessly flows from pen to paper. The new single was written in collaboration with Yanya's creative partner, Wilma Archer (Sudan Archives, MF DOOM, Celeste), with whom she's previously collaborated on PAINLESS and her debut album Miss Universe.
