Anyone hear this one yet? Quite a melodramatic performance from a
quartet of Swedes known primarily for their whiplash core metal
delivery. Plenty of Mellotron strings and choir, and, according to a
recent review in Outburn Magazine--even a Porcupine Tree connection
and a purposeful early '70s vibe--right down to the partial
production in an analogue studio.
(And---looking at the pictures---where did one of the members get
that great Vertigo swirl label tee shirt?)
Sounds good between Dredg and Aereogramme to me!
