A lot of times the best idea would come out of that final push when you’re too exhausted to even think and you rely on feeling.”\u003cbr\u003e Returning following the release of their debut ‘Memory Device’ in 2020, and 18 months of touring across Europe and the US with the likes of Yard Act and Chk Chk Chk, Baba Ali have created an incendiary follow up with one foot firmly placed on the dancefloor, the other in a state of constant frenzy.\u003cbr\u003e ‘Laugh Like A Bomb’ showcases anxious synths and scratchy guitars that collide with concrete drum hits,  pulsing bass and Baba’s snarly vocals, in a 40 minute collection that explores feelings of unease, abandon and desire, as well as explorations into the more sinister.\u003cbr\u003e Available to independent retailers on Beverly Hills Pink coloured vinyl.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTracklisting\u003cbr\u003eHold My Head\u003cbr\u003eBurn Me Out\u003cbr\u003eGold Rush!\u003cbr\u003eI’m Bored\u003cbr\u003eAnesthesia, Beverly Hill\u003cbr\u003eLaugh Like A Bomb\u003cbr\u003eMake U Feel\u003cbr\u003eA Circle\u003cbr\u003eLip Service\u003cbr\u003eBankrupt Funk\u003cbr\u003eYves Klein Blue\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Memphis Industries","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42418606604444,"sku":"MI0772CD","price":10.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/products\/1_ac370fc2-55b4-4eea-b849-d9debad5a61c.jpg?v=1679883325","url":"https:\/\/www.horizonsmusic.co.uk\/products\/baba-ali-laugh-like-a-bomb-cd","provider":"Horizons Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
