Since the release of their debut EP Exquisite Corpse, Warpaint have fully expanded the limits of the quintessential indie rock sound through their experimental mixture of psychedelia, folk, and haunting vocals. The Los Angeles quartet have matched that soulful fervor with two more albums, latest of which is a self-titled album that opens their horizons to combining electronic beats into their already-unique sound. Even with the fresh spin, Warpaint retains the mesmerizing surrealism of albums past and has made them a hot band to keep on your radar. Your chance to dive into the refreshing waters of Warpaint's music is for a one-night engagement at The Observatory.
