Boy With Apple Return with Good For You

Leave a comment

Swedish outfit Boy with Apple have been on our radar for some time, and they slowly keep churning out these dreamy little singles to keep our attention. Their latest is completely blissed out, taking their ghostly tendencies and draping them atop these subtle little beats that move and unfurl throughout the mix. Honestly, the more I listen, the more it feels like the Sneaker Pimps turning into a dream pop band; there are the little club beats that provide a groove, yet they get wrapped up in the swirling atmospherics, giving more of a modern twist to the vibe. As always, the band’s work is brought to you by Varo Records.

Boy With Apple Ready Debut LP

Leave a comment

A few years back, Sweden’s Boy with Apple were all the rage over here at ATH; they had several rad singles I wrote up, but then disappeared. Apparently, that was to hole up and finish up their debut LP, which we’ve got a peek into with this fresh single. A simplistic view on their style would be to offer the group up as some brand of dream pop, and I totally get that when listening to the guitar bits that wave across this tune. But, if you put your ear closer, or turn up your headphones, you can certainly hear an almost 90s earnestness to the vocal delivery, particularly when the chorus erupts into that ethereal pop pulse. It’s a really special moment, working really tightly with this trippy club beat that works the percussive element deep in the song’s shadows. Looking forward to hearing what their debut Lp sounds like; it drops via Varo Records on March 15th.

Boy with Apple Share Brighter Than the Sun

Sweden’s Boy with Apple have been hitting us with some really solid hits this year, and this might be the last tune we get for a minute, as the group head into the studio to record their debut album. This track kicks off with a little breakbeat, a throwback to all the sounds of late night 90s parties. But, it’s not nostalgia by any means, quickly shifting gears to move into the modern dream pop realm with these coated vocals and warm melodies caressing the backbeat. They’re combining the feel good elements of pop music with the darker corners of all things “gaze,” and I can definitely get behind that.

Boy with Apple Share Linger On

While Sweden’s Boy with Apple work on their debut album, they’re spending the Spring months dropping little breadcrumbs so we can follow along. I love everything about this latest track, drenched in these heavy notes and cascading guitar notes glittering across the song’s backdrop. Theres’s something about the vocals that shimmers and reverberates in your ears as the rhythm section thumps; it leaves you with this blanketing melodiousness that soothes you as the darkness echoes behind. Really love the way the band is working things out, and I’m super excited to hear where they end of with this debut; the new single is out today courtesy of Varo Records.

Boy With Apple Share Strawberry Boy

Not sure about all the male dominated fruit in that title bar, but super sure that this new track from Sweden’s Boy with Apple is worth your time. They’ve been relatively quiet since their debut EP, and they’re bringing three new singles to the world this Spring before going back to recored their debut LP…one of which is below. It immediately submerges itself in the cavernous depths of post-punk, creating this shadowy atmosphere where you can hear faint jangling guitar notes skittering about in the distance. Zara Henriksson’s voice pulls off this playful stutter in the chorus that really caught my ear, mimicking some of those guitar notes in the distance. Fingers crossed they get that debut finished before too long.

Bolywool Drops Brand New Single

Leave a comment

It’s no secret that Sweden is a hotbed of really sweet musical sounds, and Bolywool is the latest group to pop up on my radar. Their latest single opens beautifully, crashing into your ears with this frantic mess of noise and bubbling undercurrent of melody. Those noisier bits seem to take control, until the smoky vocals come into the picture for the verses; the voice seems to bat away the wash of distortion, clearing up the tune just briefly before the chorus comes in with another smashing bit of discordant noise. This tune will feature on their new album, Dead Reckoning, dropping this March!
