Shamir's art is a synthesis of the full spectrum of human emotion; sensual, furious, yearning, joyful. The freedom in his self produced and released Hope, although tethered through style to greats (like Miss Nina Simone, Prince, and Taylor Swift) is based almost entirely in a hyper specific, fully autonomous, embodied expression of personhood. Originally––and somewhat begrudgingly––released via SoundCloud in 2017, Hope was received with the sort of enthusiasm that marks this work as a truly iconic, world building project that only Shamir could have constructed. The original vinyl pressing was quick to sellout, and now, via the venerated label Kill Rock Stars and following its 5 year anniversary, Hope finds itself remastered on color vinyl, in a gatefold jacket and featuring two never-before-heard bonus tracks; marking a maturation all the way from Shamir's bedroom 4-track to platforms available worldwide. 1. Hope 2. What Else 3. Ignore Everything 4. Tom Kelly 5. Easier 6. Like a Bird 7. One More Time Won't Kill You 8. I Fucking Hate You 9. Rain 10. Bleed It Out 11. Breathe (bonus) 12. Camouflage (bonus)
