Electronic | 39:26 min | WEB FLAC (tracks) | 238 MB
Label: Ninja Tune
Superb debut album by one of the UK’s more distinctive new pop voices and producers. After cutting her teeth with idiosyncratic releases on No Pain In Pop and Kassem Mosse’s Ominira, Throwing Shade adopts her birth name, Nabihah Iqbal for a more personalised set of songs, adapting influence from ’80s goth, Egyptian mythology, and Teutonic psychedelia to realise a striking, unexpected sound, especially when judged against her early work.
