Swedish band Boy With Apple have just released their debut EP titled Walk in the Park. It features five tracks including the singles Iceage and Green Eyes.
The band’s music sits firmly within the dreampop camp. Driven by guitars and supplemented by synths they produce an expansive sound whilst their use of a drum machine introduces an element of indie dance. This reminds me somewhat of indie band remixes back in the day none more so than on the title track. That alone makes them stand out from the crowd. There is also a hint of a goth element, especially on the Cocteau’s sounding Iceage where the vocal style reminds me of Liz Frasers’. I cannot really giver a finer compliment, or recommendation, than that.
Walk in the Park is available digitally via VÅRØ.
