Cold Specks- Fool's Paradise [LP] ( Vinyl )

Vinyl LP pressing. Vinyl LP pressing. 2017 album from Toronto singer/songwriter Ladan Hussein (AKA Cold Specks). "Fool's Paradise," the title track of the album, was partially inspired by the legend of Araweelo, a mythic Somali queen who's said to have castrated male foes. "Fool's Paradise" is also the first time Cold Specks' music has incorporated the Somali language. The words in the song's bridge are "kala garo naftaada iso laftaada," or "understand the difference between your bones and your soul"-a phrase Hussein says she learned from her grandmother, and a sentiment entirely at home amidst Cold Specks' brand of spare, meditative soul.
