Shimmer And Spin

It have passed more than three years since Chorusgirl were presented on this place the last time. Since then they released their debut album a few years ago and now they are back with their new album Shimmer and Spin. When they were a noisy pop band with massive surf and twangy guitars they now developed into a band who is able to play in the first league of pop-rock bands. After changing the line-up Silvi Wersing is the main character of this German/British band and they reduced the force and speed of their former songs for more intimate and self-reflecting songs. The songs were thrifty but well tempered arranged so that Silvi's superb voice can lead the songs. Probably one of the best guitar pop albums this year that came to my ears. Well done.

Glasgow. A city where new bands can grow and get reputations while playing live all over the year. Many bands could be  named but less impressed me like them. As far as I investigated it is a band lead by Julie Eisenstein and Suse Bear. Their sound is based in classic (pub)-rock sound. Short guitar dominated songs that crawl into your ears and hardly get out of them. Surely not the next big thing but songs that might be timeless. Guitar pop, collage rock and pub rock in very different styles makes it a pleasure to listen to them from time to time.
