Tune-Yards are back with new single "Look At Your Hands", the first single from a new album
Tune-Yards (it's not tUnE-yArDs anymore) have announced new LP I can feel you creep into my private life, and shared lead single "Look At Your Hands".
"Look At Your Hands" is the catchy first preview of the band's follow up to 2014's Nikki Nack, and it comes with a video by Michael Speed.
Merrill Garbus and Nate Brenner, now "officially" a duo, examine "race, politics, intersectional feminism, and environmental prophecies" through a dozen tracks on I can feel you creep into my private life.
"Yes, the world is a mess, but I've been attempting to look more and more inward: how do all of these 'isms' that we live in manifest in me, in my daily activities, interactions?" says bandleader Garbus. "Some of the '80s throwback production came from wanting the vocals to sound robotic, maybe to counter the sincerity of the lyrics. I started sampling my vocals in an MPC which I've wanted to do for years, and there was something that felt really right about my voice being trapped in a machine."
Most of Tune-Yards' new album was recorded at John Vanderslice's Tiny Telephone Oakland in California. Mikaelin "Blue" Bluespruce (Solange, Skepta, Kendrick Lamar) is on mixing duties, with Dave Kutch (Jay-Z, Chance the Rapper) mastering.
