The electro duo Lissi Dancefloor Disaster finally released their debut album “Waves” on February 27th. Some of the songs you’ll recognize from before as they have been released earlier on EP:s and singles, like for example “Kill the Winner” from the Autumn. And the album won’t dissappoint any listeners from before; it’s a solid album from the first track to the last, where they show us a large span from darker dirty indie rock electro to more fintuned pop songs, like in the new “Try”, which you can listen to here below.
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.
Here’s a nice song from the band Come On Like Gangbusters, “Strangest Island”. Sixties-inspired indie pop, with quite a few vibes from The Kinks. If you like the song I recommend to check out their debut EP, which was released last year, which is just as good, if not better.
Automobilist is a new pleasant band acquaintance for me. So far, they’ve released an EP with four songs, “The Collapse”, which shows their garage-sounding rock, somewhat odd and different, with surprising twists and turns in the songs, but still with simple, efficient rock-punkish choruses. The early Talking Heads comes to my mind, also because of the singer’s sometimes talk-singing style, which feels rather close to David Byrne’s.
The duo Mire Kay, that is Emelie Molin and Victoria Skoglund, opened up the door a bit some month ago to their new album “A Rising Tide Lifts All Boats”, which will be released now in March. They did this with the single “Beat”, a verybeautiful, melancholic song, which promises a lot for the album.
