Kyp Malone Debuts "Give Blood" Off New Album Rain Machine
Kyp Malone |
The first song off Kyp Malone's much anticipated solo release Rain Machine is premiering right now at pitchfork.com. "Give Blood" is a rocking percussive number with blissfully fuzzed out guitars and some genius word play.
Set to be released September 22 on Anti-records, Rain Machine features ten unflinchingly original and emotional songs mixing elements of modern jazz, bluegrass and blistering guitar driven rock into a refreshing new sound. As singer and guitarist for celebrated band TV on the Radio, Malone proved himself both a captivating and delightfully unpredictable musical force. On Rain Machine, he shows himself a singer and a lyricist of startling talents. Malone recently described Rain Machine as "nearly full spectrum of frequencies audible to the human ear, a reflection of a variety of emotions and situations real and imagined - some rhythm some rhyme." In most instances such a statement could be dismissed as nothing more than playful hyperbole. This is not one of those times. Rain Machine is the sound of an extraordinary artist emerging into his own.
