Swedish~ Stereo~

I guess rainy lazy day like this is the most right to talk about new Lykke Li's album "Wounded Rhymes". I've already told you about this long-awaited work and not only by us as it has made its respectable debut at #2 of Swedish chart and still is in Top-10.
It's hard to call "Wounded Rhymes" just album, compilation of music tracks, it's definitely something much bigger, it feels like a whole world, world created by Lykke, world where the sun never rises and seems like there's no place for hope. Or actually there is? In this ghost world where Lykke sounds like another lost soul wandering around scorched wastelands and abandoned bars her voice feels like the only real hope if she realizes it or not.
"Wounded Rhymes" is probably the most original and inspiring work I heard this year. Mix of dark Tarantino-vibes and melancholic retro-jazz atmosphere lit by gentle pop-tunes sung by soft and relaxed Lykke's vocal feels like something completely unique and really precious these days when commercial pop-music desperately looks for new niches and ways to grow. Lykke doesn't seem to care about it, she just closes herself in her own world but leaves doors open for everyone who will want to come and get lost with her.

It's Friday and Lykke Li who will release new album "Wounded Rhymes" just in two weeks rewards all who's gone through this tough week with one of her favorite tracks from the album - "Love Out Of Lust".
As we said before every new little music piece of Lykke Li intrigues us like it never was on previous records and this one is not exception, it's much slower melancholic song comparing with two singles "Get Some" and "I Follow Rivers" but though it's dark it's more relaxing than depressive illuminating with hopeful rays of light and containing loads of Lykke's delicate esthetics.
We love it and get as the best treat for this Friday evening.
