Vero have also unveiled their new single titled 'Cupid', the follow-up to their previous 'BEG! / Concrete' 7", which was released last month.
Back in November of last year, Stockholm band Vero shared their track entitled 'BEG!', the lead song to their 'BEG!'/'Concrete' 7". The group have now unveiled the B-side tune which is a cover version of Shame's 2017 cut 'Concrete'. Creating a lo-fi, fuzzed out rendition, the dark vocal delivery combined by gritty, sludging guitar riffs create a brilliant contrast to Shame's killer original version.
Swedish artist William Hellström aka Vita Bergen has shared his latest single 'Can’t Hold It Much Longer', taken from his new LP 'Another Day In Paradise', out now via Woah Dad Records.
Freshly signed to Icons Creating Evil Art, Billie Lindahl aka Promise and the Monster has unveiled her new single 'Beating Heart'. A glistening pop offering, sparkling synth play and tender drums act as the palette underneath Lindahl's floating vocal performance.
Stockholm based FELIN has shared an impressive video for her latest single 'Heroes & Villains'. Directed by Giannina Panfichi, the vid looks like a proper film with singer Elin Blom dancing on stage in front of an older gentleman. She also shaves her head, giving herself a sexy, new buzz cut before transforming into an all-out heroine. Always conectrating on taking her sound and visuals to higher levels, FELIN's latest offering is surely no exception.
Swedish trio Hey Elbow have released their new album 'We Three', out now via Adrian Recordings. Comprised of nine tracks, the band effortlessly incorporate the sounds of dream pop, haunting post-punk, post-rock and even experimental jazz.
Swedish trio Spunsugar have shared their new single 'Run', a fiery post-punk meets alternative handing laced with a dash of shoegaze. With the song instantly launching into powering guitar riffs with a rumbling bass line and hard-hitting drumming shortly following, the lyrics address running away from what is perceived is fearful things, whether situational or taught.
Swedish duo The Magnettes unveil the video for their current single 'American'. Directed by Martin Åhlin along with The Magnettes themselves, the stylishly dressed ladies are filmed in a motel room in some clips whilst driving a pickup truck in others, which seems to reflect a particular representation of Americana. With the song being another mountainous pop cut, it wouldn't be farfetched to see the single get placement for films or adverts.
Stockholm duo Lennixx, comprised of Hanna Larsson and Andrea Kallström, follow-up their previous track 'Bold Me' with a new single titled 'Empty Room'. A tender R&B ballad, the song mainly consists of acoustic guitar play and light keys. There are no drums in the song, leaving the production open and spacious with the main emphasis placed on the gorgeous vocals.
