Johan Bring, whom I presented the other day with a professor’s title, is also a member of the quartet The State of Floral Beings. They have earlier released two full lengt albums, the last one in 2008, but are now back witha two-track single, “Arusha Control Speaking”. It’s lippy, somewhat punkish electro rock, where I think the the second track “A Real Life With Bran Flakes” is the coolest one. Listen here:
The duo Wan Light, hailing from Stockholm, released their third album “Space Canaries” in Spring, almost 8 years since the last album “Carmaline”. They present a dreamy indie pop where acoustic guitars get along with synths, beats with drums and retro vibes from the eighties with more modern indie and electronica vibes. There’s plenty of smooth melodies among the 11 tracks; here are two of them:
In April I told you about Nude Party’s single “Indie“, so I think it’s only fair to tip about the EP where the song finally found it’s home, the excellent”Ingratitude Is The Worlds Reward”. Strangely enough my favourite track from the EP shifts each time I listen, but right now it’s “Thank You For Nothing”, a song they describe as a celebration to bitterness, noise, tubas, accordions, pears and falsetto choirs.
Esaias Orchestra, with members from both Malmö and Copenhagen, released the EP “Words” in Spring. The title probably tell us something about how central the song poetry is for the singer and songwriter Esaias Grina. That doesn’t stop the band from backing up the lyrics with some carefully arranged music: an airy, playful, melodic indie with traces of folk, which with the beautiful strings and horns makes a quite unique mix.
