Vagabon brings her rage to the club on “Do Your Worst”

thefader.com:

Vagabon has shared the third single from her upcoming album, Sorry I Haven’t Called. "Do Your Worst" follows "Carpenter" and "Can I Talk My Shit?" from Lætitia Tamko's third album, which will be released on September 15 via Nonesuch Records.

This latest track, produced by Tamko alongside Rostam and Teo Halm, marks something of a gear change for Vagabon with her slower, contemplative sound turbo-charged by a jungle beat that hits as hard as the lyrics. "You turn me into someone I don’t fuck with," she sings between the breaks, taking aim at someone that wronged her in the past. "Every time we talk there’s something missing.

How the fuck did we get by?"

Vagabon is hitting the road this fall for a raft of shows that include a headline run in North America with support from Nourished By Time, plus European dates with Weyes Blood.
