It wasn’t long ago that I wrote about the band Norma’s single “Joan”. Now they’ve also released the album where the song belong, “The Invisible Mother”, the band’s second full length record. It took a while before before I could really get a grasp of the album, but after listening through it a few times it has grown quite a bit for me. It’s a diverse album and somewhat hard to place in a distinctive genre, as I hear Kraftwerk influences, grand filmic Vangelis-ambience, catchy pop choruses as well as indie pop vibes from today. It’s all sewn together with a dark, suggestive atmosphere, which runs throuch all the tracks on this special and interesting album.
