Warpaint - Bees 

This song was originally written for the bees! The bassline sounds a bit like a mass of buzzin’ bees. I love this song, because it makes me dance, and its not so in your face. I think it needs a few listens before you catch on, then I believe magical things are revealed.

  • Pitchfork: What are some films that reflect your sound?
  • Jenny Lee Lindberg: Poltergeist.
  • EK: I love Days of Heaven and the way [director] Terrence Malick shoots an endless amount of film and shows what's happening in the organic environment around his characters. With Malick's movies, there's not a formula you can anticipate; the plot changes. That's important to us-- I like progressive rock like King Crimson and Yes along with electronic music, things that don't have standard pop structures. My mom listened to a lot of Grateful Dead bootlegs throughout childhood and even though I swore I hated them, I know they seeped in. And we all really like to jam-- I wish there was another word to use besides "jam," but that's something that we all relate to. That's why our songs might have a spontaneous feeling, because it's not just like, "OK, let's work on the first part and then second part."

Where I grew up, there’s a lot of rich people, and casinos, and a huge lower class. It was a really confusing place to grow up. I felt confined by the city. I felt like a creative person, but I didn’t feel I had an outlet. And when I moved to LA, I felt really free.
