OSLO TWINS WITH AN EMOTIONAL BANGER

If you’ve been looking for that melodramatic, overwrought joy that you’d get from, say, Talk Talk and even Tears For Fears, then you won’t go far wrong here. There’s a track we’re particularly fond of called ‘Miss Yesterday’ (and ‘The Edge‘ is definitely worth your time as well) which is the dreamiest of pop, and has a super smart video to boot. Check it out below.

There’s an EP due later in the month called ‘Back To Nothing’, packed with euphoric hooks and heady pop. You can pre-order it on Bandcamp, and it’ll surely be available to pre-save on your fave streaming service (all details here).

We’re feeling enthusiastic about this lot – many of the dream pop bands can suffer from terrible navel gazing, and a lot of the New Wave influenced bands are a little too reverential, but in the Oslo Twins’ hands, it sounds clean and fresh, and something embraced rather than a facsimile. It’s good stuff and available on 12″ too, which is always great. We’ll be getting a copy that’s for sure!

Get on this!
