Warpaint’s live power finally gets the full-length document it deserves.

Capturing one of the most acclaimed bands of recent times in their natural habitat, ARTIFACT is a new 16-track live collection from Emily Kokal, Theresa Wayman, Jenny Lee Lindberg and Stella Mozgawa.

Their first full record since 2022’s Radiate Like This, and following standalone single “Common Blue”, the album brings together some of Warpaint’s greatest and most distinctive live recordings. Fan favourites including “Undertow”, “Love Is To Die” and “So Good” were captured across special performances in Houston, London, Porto, Dallas, Phoenix, Brussels, Amsterdam, Los Angeles and New York City.

Recorded between 2022 and 2024—in the wake of Radiate Like This, during shows marking the 15th anniversary of debut EP Exquisite Corpse, and across the band’s 20th year—these performances preserve the charged atmosphere and deep connection that emerge whenever Warpaint take the stage. The result is a unique document of the band at their freest and most affecting.

A bare, emotionally immediate version of “Billie Holiday” and a joyous, soaring rendition of “New Song” offer two early glimpses of a collection built around the sound and energy Warpaint share with a live audience.

For Fans Of: The xx, Beach House, Cocteau Twins.

Buying from 12 Bar

Everything you need to know about ordering from 12 Bar—real people, thoughtful service and carefully sourced records.

Why shop with 12 Bar?

We're an independent record shop built around music discovery. Every purchase supports a small team passionate about sharing great music, championing independent artists and creating a thriving music community.

Every title on 12-bar.com has been chosen by real music lovers—not algorithms. We focus on records we genuinely believe deserve to be heard, helping you discover artists, labels and sounds you might not find elsewhere.

How long will my order take?

Many of the records we sell are sourced to order from our trusted network of UK distributors, allowing us to offer thousands more titles than we could ever stock in-store. Please allow up to 7 working days for dispatch.

If you've pre-ordered a record, we'll always aim to dispatch it in time for release day so it arrives on, or as close to, the official release date as possible.

Why does dispatch take a little longer?

We're an independent record shop, not a warehouse. Rather than filling shelves with thousands of records that may never sell, we carefully source many titles once you place your order.

It means a wider catalogue, less waste and more opportunities to discover great music.

How are records packaged?

Every record is packed using purpose-made vinyl mailers with protective packaging to help ensure it arrives safely.

Whenever we can, we'll also include a few 12 Bar stickers, our latest zine and other little extras to make opening your order feel just as special as playing the record.

Can I return my order?

If your order arrives damaged or isn't quite right, please get in touch and we'll make it right.

For unopened items, you can return your order within 14 days of delivery. Please see our full Returns Policy for details.
