Primal Heart

Kimbra

Sleek, percussive art pop that trades maximalist whimsy for industrial-edged R&B. A high-definition exploration of human fragility and grit.

April 20, 2018 · Warner Bros. Records

A high-stakes balance of industrial grit and soulful vulnerability that feels both futuristic and deeply grounded.
