FKA Twigs – LP1 (Vinyl) [ vinyl ]

UK R&B vocalist FKA Twigs' 2014 ‘LP1’ is an exceptional debut. Spellbinding and artful from the off, she manages to tap into something in her mid-twenties that not many people manage in a lifetime. More than anything this feels universally appealing.

While sultry, drug-addled R&B is an increasingly crowded genre, FKA Twigs takes a hammer to the kind that The Weeknd made famous and plays in the rubble. You don't have to be a strict devotee of the R&B underground genre to realise that this is a great album. The sound is her own, and she's capable of making an album work as an album rather than just a collection of songs.
