I hadn't bought CDs for many years, until I finally bought a car (at 26) and wanted music to listen to in it. This was one of the earlier CDs I purchased. Lykke Li's first album is often thought of as being inferior to her second, but this kind of comparison neglects the different, more innocent tone of this ensemble, and coupled with her trademark varied - sometimes dusky, sometimes elfin - lyrics and strong percussion, there is something profound in its understated feel. Most of the work is strong and interesting, and it makes great, chilled music to drive to. The aloof, modern, inevitable and yet profound sadness of her music truly belongs to this era just as much as it nods to times past. A recommended purchase.
Unusual and slightly quirky first album. If you are familiar with her songs on Mark Ronson's recent album, this is a lot different to that. Definitely worth a listen though.
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: New

lykke li is an up and comer to the music scene with no real genre to fit into so shes made her own little place to settle into,her music is as beautiful as it is experimental as it is simple,most of her songs are not even demod,she and her band of outcasts simply just pick up whatever is at hand,musical instrument or not and they simply create what i can only describe as classic music,it is said that she hates to b compared,and quite honestly i can think of no one to compare her to,she has broken the mould,both music and choice of lyrical content blows me away everytime,i wud like to say that if u liked such and such a band u would like youth novels,but as i have said i cant compare her,and the album is like nothing iv heard b4,far frm doing massive concert halls or football stadiums,lykki li and her travelling band like nothing more than to just show up unannounced and perform for free,busking is their trademark,and the crowd r never left unsatisfied,this is in my top five of favourite albums ryt now and i predict it will b there for sumtym,if u consider urself trendy and innovative now is the tym to giv lykki li a listen, then at least in a few months tym wen lykki li has got a bandwaggon the size of a battleship 'u can proudly say that u found them 1st,the album is raw and filled with a passion so democratic,a melais of anything goes and no boundries, this realy is the album to hav,u can see them live on youtube,and i would bet my last dime that wen u see her,her album will b top of ur wishlist!Read full review
