Background
No Home Record is Kim Gordon's first solo album in her 38-year music career. According to Gordon, she decided to start working on the album after meeting producer Justin Raisen in an Airbnb rental a few years prior to the album's recording. Raisen asked her to sing on a project that he had been working on, which became the basis for the song "Murdered Out". The two decided to continue working on a solo album. It was released on October 11, 2019.
Music and production
The music from the album has been called a "feast of disorienting beats" by NPR writer Lars Gotrich, and includes instruments such as oboe and guitar. Chantal Akerman's 2015 documentary film called No Home Movie inspired Gordon to name her album the same and give it sense and context.
