Red Blinders is the latest EP by Malmö, Sweden’s Hater. Sophisticated guitar led dream pop inspired by the C86 sound with sweet vocals and interesting song arrangements.
Something else from the press release:
The echoey eeriness of ‘Red Blinders’ could have come right out of the bubble blowing indie pop hey days of the early 1980s.
RIYL: Alvvays, The Mantles, Beach House, Sky Faction and Throwing Muses.
FCC CLEAN!
Recommended Tracks: 1, 2, 3, 4
1. (4:39) ***Blushing – Medium-up tempo, guitar-driven pop recording with a nice melody.
2. (3:07) **Rest – Another medium-up tempo, guitar-driven pop gem. Vocal rendition is impeccable.
3. (2:40) **Red Blinders – Striking medium tempo, dream pop composition. Homesick.
4. (3:38) *Hater – Think of one of those fast tunes on the compilation C86. Vocal driven.
