2014 EU issue on vinyl LP+bonus download =LP1 is London-based producer, singer, songwriter, video director, classically trained ballerina, and choreographer FKA Twigs' defining artistic statement to date. The 10-track offering builds on the success of her two previous EPs and accompanying videos (EP1 and EP2) which have elevated FKA Twigs from a word-of-mouth secret to global obsession over the past two years. LP1 features none of these previously released songs; instead each of the tracks on LP1 is brand new, born out of FKA Twigs’ artistic philosophy of spontaneous creation and collaboration in the studio.
Tracks:
A1 Preface
A2 Lights On
A3 Two Weeks
A4 Hours
A5 Pendulum
B1 Video Girl
B2 Numbers
B3 Closer
B4 Give Up
B5 Kicks
For many, there was no sexier pop listen in 2014 than FKA Twigs' full-length debut. It's a feminist take on the Weeknd's druggy avant-R&B, with self-loathing and sleaze replaced by self-possession and hunger. The haunting mix of pop and EDM weirdness takes a while to kick in – which only makes it more delicious when it does.
LP1 is the debut studio album by English recording artist FKA twigs, released on 6 August 2014 by Young Turks. FKA twigs collaborated with several producers on the album, including Arca, Emile Haynie, Devonté Hynes, Paul Epworth and Clams Casino.
LP1 received critical acclaim upon release. The album has spawned three singles: "Two Weeks", "Pendulum" and "Video Girl". The album was nominated for the 2014 Mercury Prize and the award for Best Recording Package at the 2015 Grammy Awards.
