Kim Gordon- Bangin’ on the Freeway

Kim Gordon, the legendary musician known for her work with Sonic Youth, has released her latest single “Bangin’ on the Freeway”. This track is part of the deluxe edition of her second solo album, “The Collective”, which will be released on December 13 via Matador Records.

“Bangin’ on the Freeway” is a sonic adventure that defies easy categorisation. It opens with a chest-rattling bass, quickly evolving into a mix of feedback buzz, industrial beats, and fleeting samples of tropicalia-style guitars. Gordon’s signature half-rap, half-sung vocals float over this complex soundscape, creating a disorienting yet captivating experience.

The track showcases Gordon’s ability to blend diverse influences – from bass music to industrial hip-hop to samba – into something uniquely her own. It’s a testament to her continued relevance and innovation over 40 years into her career.
