A neon-soaked satire of consumer culture. Santigold blends high-gloss dance-pop with her signature dub-inflected new wave for a sharp, playful critique.

It's the ultimate soundtrack for feeling like a million bucks while knowing everything is actually for sale.

A vibrant, neon-hued celebration of artifice that masks a sharp, satirical bite.

Who I Thought You Were

Moments Worth Waiting For

The infectious, self-aware narcissism of the opening track's hook backed by a bouncy, sunshine-drenched rhythm.

The transition into the darker, more claustrophobic synth-work of 'Walking in a Circle' that breaks the album's bright veneer.

The unexpected, driving post-punk energy of 'Who I Thought You Were' closing the record with a jagged guitar edge.
