Last year saw ANOHNI release her debut album HOPELESSNESS, one of the most critically-acclaimed of the year (and our number two pick in our list of the best albums of 2016). And though it only came out last spring, she has just announced its follow-up in the form of the PARADISE EP, along with sharing the EP's title track. Listen to it below.
Like the album which precedes it, PARADISE features a production job from the inspired pairing of Hudson Mohawke and Oneohtrix Point Never. With the announcement comes one of ANOHNI's now characteristic mission statements, this one directly addressing the need for action in the wake of Donald Trump's ascension to the presidency. She writes that now is the time for "an intervention by women around the world" with an aim to "alter our species’ desperate course."
The PARADISE EP will be released on March 17. Revisit the Naomi Campbell-starring music video for "Drone Bomb Me" below.
