Old Man by Harrys Gym

4...according to our on Wed 02 Mar, 2011.

This sounds kinda icy. I guess them being from Norway'd probably explain that one. I guess I'm thinking of a far less idiosyncratic indie pop version of the Knife here. The lady's vocals quite remind me Linda Perhacs whose reissued LP on Mexican Summer everyone should buy RIGHT NOW. Chad Valley is on flipside remix duties and brings some sunshine into things as he moulds the original's unassuming synthpop into more powerfully danceable shapes, getting a bit trancey at the beginning before dropping a satisfying bass throb into the mix. Wouldn't mind hearing his 12" based on this..

First single from the Norwegian band’s second
album, featuring a remix from man-of-the-moment
Chad Valley.

Norwegian indie-poppers featuring Anne Lise
Frøkedal, also of I Was A King.

Radio 1’s Huw Stephens is a big fan of the band’s
glacial pop sound.

Strictly limited to 150 copies.
