During the week I got a lot of inbound e-mails and mostly promotion material. Usually I delete them unread but sometimes I take the time to read the headlines and open the e-mail if I am interested in the content. This happened when I got promotion material by an Oslo-based band named Mayflower Madam. I've never heard of them before but wanted to know what is behind the headline Joy Division influenced psychedelic post-punk. What I heard was Vultures the first single of their upcoming album. The song is a hybrid of JAMJ-riffs added with the echo sound of early Sisters of Mercy and bit of Krautrock. Surely one of the better songs released this year.
