Meldau Albin Lee: Discomforts 2024 [CD]

Svenska synth-fenomenet KITE har aldrig släppt ett fullständigt studioalbum, tills nu. 'VII' samlar 14 av duons djupaste och mest dynamiska låtar. Tagna från deras sex 7"-singlar som släppts under det senaste halvdecenniet uppvisar albumet på ett övertygande sätt KITEs distinkt filmiska variant av svensk darkwave i all sin prakt och ödslighet. Här samsas samarbeten med Blanck Mass, Anna von Hausswolff och Henric de la Cour, från dystopisk pop till existentiella ballader och new romantica.

Cameron Winter’s debut album is a long time coming. Having spent the halcyon days of his youth listening to a steady stream of top 40 radio as he worked long hours as a signmaker’s apprentice, Winter was imbibed with a precocious understanding of songwriting and a deep appreciation for music at an early age. After quitting his job suddenly and striking out on his own at the age of 16, Winter found success in New York as the frontman of rock band Geese, playing volcanic, irreverent punk music. On his new LP Heavy Metal, a startling other side to the young musician is revealed, lyrical and otherworldly, presenting a highly modern interpretation of classic songwriting.
