Description

Their first album since 2018, V, by Unknown Mortal Orchestra has a lead single proclaiming "I Killed Captain Cook." The track “is told from the perspective of the Hawaiian that killed Captain James Cook, the English explorer largely responsible for the colonization of Polynesia, who attempted to kidnap Hawaiian chief Kalaniʻōpuʻu, and eventually met his demise in Hawai’i as a result." Nielson’s mother Deedee Aipolani Nielson, “a Kanaka Maoli from Hilo and Miss Aloha Hula 1973,” used to tell him the story of Captain Cook as a child, and he wrote the song in tribute to her. The elder Nielson also appears in the song’s music video.
Limited to 500 copies, the VMP exclusive version of V by Unknown Mortal Orchestra is pressed on Opaque Olive vinyl at Independent Record Pressing (IRP). The 2LPs will arrive in a gatefold, direct-to-board, foil-stamped and numbered jacket.
