Fort Not Share Heaven to Me

A few weeks ago we were really excited to hear that this year would bring us a fresh record from Fort Not, the Swedish duo offering up spritely pop music. On their brand new single, there’s this very sated vocal feel, something that reminds me a bit of some of those Forster penned Go-Betweens tracks (or his son for that matter); they hand on the cusp between melodic croon and spoken word, accenting the sharp jangles of the guitar. The drumming stays out of the way, only hitting above its weight when the fuzzier riffs come into play during the chorus. This should convince you to spend a little bit of money on You On Repeat, the new LP via Meritorio, out February 27th.

Fort Not Announce You On Repeat

Swedish outfit Fort Not have been quiet for several years, but they make a bold pop statement with their return today, announcing they’ll release You On Repeat this February. Their sound pulls from a rich history of underground pop artists, combining jangly strummed guitars and light vocal notes to deliver these bright ditties. Since they’re pop focused, the melodies get to shine here, but there’s still some heavy waves of guitar underneath their feet, giving some depth to the track. There’s some Teenage Fanclub in this, but I can also hear similarities to ATH faves Pop Filter in the way the vocals kind of crest and ride atop. Really stoked to hear there’s a new LP, so be sure to get your hands on a copy before February 27th when You On Repeat hits courtesy of Meritorio Records.
