ROPE is very excited to welcome Sweden’s DEATH & VANILLA to The Compass, Chester.
The duo formed in Malmo, Sweden in 2007 and with last year’s debut full length, the band found themselves riding high in many end of year charts, drawing comparisons with Broadcast, Stereolab and more recently Still Corners etc. Described in some quarters as a “thoughtful, magnificent psychedelic masterpiece”, the buzz for new recordings comes hotly anticipated and both new tunes here are killer.
Fresh from an appearance in many critics / stores’ 2012 “Albums of the Year” with their incredible self-titled debut, Sweden’s ‘Death and Vanilla’ release their first 45 with The GPS late Jan. The mighty “From Above” has steadily been tearing up the blog sites with it’s ghostly video clip and killer reverb drenched, dreamy gentle psych hooks, since it’s airing at the start of the year.
A sublime 45, heavy on nods to 60s French Pop, Library Music and French / Italian soundtrack sounds from the same era not to mention the subtle use of vintage electronics- all fronted by the breathy vocals of Marleen Nilsson. Just gorgeous.
