WALLPAPER:: Partway through recording his debut LP as Wallpaper. Eric Frederic lost his shit. The Oakland artist was neck-deep in a series of isolated studio all-nighters to put him in the mood, when the song “Doodoo Face” pushed him into the beyond. Boxed in by layers of percussive funk, dark synthesizer blurt and crushing bass, Frederic lost himself inside of Ricky Reed, the character he’d long ago conceived as Wallpaper’s front man. He gave in to Ricky’s rampant narcissism, love for party and supreme indifference, and as a result, discovered the guiding duality behind Doodoo Face, the album: There’s sadness inside all that celebration….a little madness too. But one needn’t know any of this to “get” Wallpaper. Is it satire? Sincerity? Something in between? Doodoo Face invites you to decide.
