I first got intro’d to the music of Laura Kidd AKA She Makes War, Penfriend and Obey Robots in about 2010. I didn’t really take enough time to really listen to her stuff properly, so didn’t get very engaged with her work.

I just started to give it another go and I have to say, her work is pretty terrific. There’s lots of musical variation across her different releases and personas. This song is pretty straight up indie rock, but there’s also electronic and folk elements on certain songs, as well. Some nice collabs with people like Tanya Donelly and Miles Hunt, too. If you dig deep enough, you can even find the club bangers and punk rock she was involved with in the 2000’s.

    Just giving a listen to the Obey Robots album that came out last month year, and it’s really good. Edit: the other half od Obey Robots is Gareth “Rat” Pring from Ned’s Atomic Dustbin.
