New Music | Pale Honey - Youth
Swedish duo Pale Honey are a lo-fi rock band from Gothenburg looking to take their minimalistic sound worldwide with the release of their self-titled debut album, out May 4th on Bolero Records. The seaside city was placed on the indie-rock map by the amazing (and sadly now defunct) psych-punk band The Soundtrack of Our Lives, and with their first LP Pale Honey’s Tuva Lodmark (guitar / vocals) and Nelly Daltrey (drums) plan on keeping the music world’s eyes and ears focused on the Nordic coast.
The first single is the beautifully simple and well crafted “Youth,” a song that starts off quietly, wistfully leading you into believing the track will remain a hushed synth-tinged number, until the guitar kicks in and the drums snap you back to rock reality. The track is much like youth itself, wild, unpredictable, and fun as hell.
