Description
This LP comes with a digital download (DL) card. Death and Vanilla are back with Flicker, offering their one - of - a - kind pop music that's hard to categorize. The record is housed in a beautifully simple, post - ironic de - constructed sleeve. Flicker is a modern take on these tough times. Despite world crises, the band has emerged reborn, re - arranged, and revitalized. They've blended dub reggae, Can's motorik spirals, Philip Glass's modal meander, The Cure's dreamy pop, and the symphonic ambience of Spiritualized and Talking Heads influenced by Brian Eno. Since their darker 2019 album 'Are You A Dreamer', they've created new eclectic electronica anthems full of melody and lush layers. Formed in Malmö, Sweden, Death And Vanilla love vintage musical equipment like vibraphones, organs, mellotrons, tremolo guitars, and Moog synthesizers. Influenced by 60s and 70s soundtracks, library music, kosmiche, French Ye - ye pop, and 60s psych, Marleen Nilsson, Anders Hansson, and Magnus Bodin were shaped by the city's industrial past and flat - pack present, all under the shadow of the Öresund Bridge. Death And Vanilla's music makes you feel like anything is possible yet nothing else at all. There's a glimmer of hope in their tunes. As Electronic Sound says, they 'Deploy vintage instruments in their quest for melancholic utopia.' And The Guardian calls it 'Baroque pop through a dreampop filter.'
