Kimbra A Reckoning LP

Two-time Grammy-winning artist Kimbra returns with her first album in four years: A Reckoning. Hers is a reflective record capturing the macro reckonings of our world around the environment, health, race, spirituality and feminism. However, at the heart of it, this record is an examination of the war with the micro reckonings Kimbra faces internally. It's the most sonically autonomous and confessionally raw she has ever been, finding influence in everything from modern movie soundtracks to electro-industrial pop. The album was first imagined in 2018, during Kimbra's tour with co-producer Ryan Lott of the band Son Lux, who recently scored A24's Everything Everywhere All at Once.

Even though Kimbra fans know to expect the unexpected, A Reckoning proves she can still surprise. As she views the turbulence of the early 2020s through a personal lens, questioning relationships, identity, and the world at large, she creates moods that are distinctly different from any of her previous work. The droning and chiming electronics that drive the introspective opening track 'Save Me' have more in common with Homogenic or Kid A than most of Kimbra's own discography...Kimbra's willingness to shake things up is one of her greatest strengths, and by going to extremes on A Reckoning, she delivers some of her most daring and thoughtful music.
