"The albums that stick with me the most, time and time again, are the ones that require multiple listens and L'rain's 'I Killed Your Dog' is just that. Seamlessly tying together Indie to jazz via gospel and orchestral pop, this record will mark a turning point in contemporary sounds. A collage of introspection, surreal humour and irony" - Hunter 

With her previous album Fatigue dubbed the album of 2021 by The Wire magazine, all eyes have been on the next move from experimental multi-instrumentalist L’Rain, aka Taja Cheek. Now comes this brand new rumination on hurt, I Killed Your Dog, complete with Strokes-at-the-end-of-the-world single Pet Rock and cool, calm, and chaotic single New Year’s UnResolution. Critics are loving it, too, with Pitchfork calling the album "bewitching" and making it their Best New Music, while Paste have said it "dazzles with its musicality". Intrigued? You should be! - Flying Out


Multi-instrumentalist and composer L’Rain returns with her third album I Killed Your Dog. Over-writing themes of grief and identity that informed her previous work, I Killed Your Dog considers what it means to hurt the people you love the most. Multi-layered in subject and form, L’Rain’s sonic explorations interrogate instead how multiplicities of emotion and experience intersect with identity. The experimental and the hyper-commercial; the expectation and the reality; the hope and the despair.
