Eyemouth came out of the electronica band Estrange, where some of the members had created songs mixing electronica and organic instruments and therefore neeeded a new platform for this. This year they have released three EP:s, where the latest one “Noera Genesis”, was launched this Autumn.
It’s undeniably a dark album with a sound that draws dystopic inner and outer soundscapes, and which generally has a theatrical, dramatic touch, especially when the vocals come in. The music is incredibly manyfaceted and you can hear vibes from many directions including artrock, postpunk, drone and ambient electronica. It’s unique, eventful and quite fascinating, and as far as I have listened, each EP release seems to explore a different atmosphere. They have announced that they will release another EP before the year is over.

Last year I hosted a premiere here on the blog with the cool noise rockers Lindblom & Lindblom, as they released their album “Sturm und Drang”. Their ambition is to release all songs as individual singles as well, and then accompanied by other song versions. Here the experimental electronica artist Sonds (also member of Ravga, Them Teeth) show his interpretation of “Strom”, together with a video reflecting what’s going on in the track. You can also listen to the original track here below. Robert from the band adds:
… another thing that’s familiar from the original song is the drum beat which lies embedded in the track, torned apart, but recognizable, and a guide for me to where we are in the song. I can imagine that someone whos relation to the song is not as strong as mine, get a more bewildered experience of what’s going on. I must say that it took a while for me to “get it”, but after a few spins I saw the structure and understood how the parts connect. Rather catchy actually. The video is almost entirely about reflecting what’s happening with the sound in the track and can serve as a hand rail for new listeners to embrace the noise.

PAL have released their new album “Since” now in March, just like they promised when the single “Alone” was released in February. I really like this album, especially the ambience they create in the songs, an ambience that feels laidback and a bit dreamy with a hint of melancholy. That runs through all the songs regardless of tempo, but feels the strongest when the theremin-sounding synths come in and add a nostalgic vibe to the mix. A worthy follow-up to the debut album “Weeks” from 2011. Here are two songs:
