Melby - Man With The Magic Soap

On a first, careless, listen, Stockholm four-piece Melby might seem like a charming, fun little jangle-pop band - Pay a little more attention however, and you'll find their waters run a lot deeper than that. The band have all the flash and sparkle of your favourite indie band, but add an ability to touch moods and feelings with a meaning beyond most of their peers. Their guitars, drums and synths rattle, roll and flicker around each other, all held together by the soul-shiver in Wiezell's vocals, to make immaculate little guitar-pop gems, equally dusted with sadness and sugar.
