Naked Roommate
Pass The Loofah (silver)
Oakland's Naked Roommate has been electrifying the Bay Area with their post-punk dance grooves since 2018. Starting as a duo, the band has grown into a dynamic collective featuring horns, marimba, and percussion, delivering high-energy performances and socially conscious lyrics. Their sophomore album, "Pass The Loofah", builds on the rhythmic pulse of their 2020 debut "Do The Duvet". Drawing inspiration from acts like ESG, Kid Creole, and Liquid Liquid, the album fuses post-punk, disco, funk, and house with a West Coast irreverence. Tracks like the driving "Bus," the funky "Fight Flight," and the Caribbean-tinged "Broken Whisper" showcase their knack for infectious beats and eclectic influences, while instrumental interludes and sci-fi-inspired textures add depth. Amid the dance-floor energy, the album carries a neo-socialist message, critiquing capitalism and fostering a sense of community. "Pass The Loofah" is a bold, joyful call to move, connect, and resist. Released as a limited metallic silver/white "disco ball" splatter vinyl - available while supplies last.
