After the release of their 11th album at the end of 2024, cult Stockholm duo Club 8 are back with their fourth single of the year so far.
With decades of experience, this pair have been stalwarts of the Swedish music scene since the mid-90s and have an uncommonly diverse catalogue that ranges from electro-dance stuff to music built around rhythmic African influences and pure, unadulterated pop.
Let It All Fly is a hazy, dreamy piece of melancholic arty indie-pop and sounds a bit like how we imagine The Concretes would sound if they collaborated with Portishead on a shoegaze record. There’s a touch of fellow Scandinavian bands Love Is All and The Raveonettes here too.
It’s delicate but at the same time self-assured and full of conviction and with its sparse but stylish sonic palette, it is super slick, extremely atmospheric and almost eerie in its nature. We can’t help but think – given its moody and emotive nature – that it would soundtrack an emotional scene in a cool indie movie especially well.
