Love is All-together
We’ve been following the progress of Swedish indie-pop wunderkinds Love Is All ever since the first time we spun Nine Times That Same Song years and years ago – and now it seems that after relentless touring and a solid sophomore LP they’ve fallen back into the finest of forms with their Polyvinyl debut Two Thousand and Ten Injuries. Picking up where the first LP left off, Love Is All remains every bit as scattershot and whimsical, without losing their basic pop focus, as they’ve ever been. Standout tracks include “The Birds Were Singing With All Their Might” and lead single “Kungen” both of which delight with their ‘Life-Without-Buildings-esque’ vocal delivery and newfound ‘High-Places-esque’ percussion and instrumentation. Lead singer Josephine Olausson lets her lyrics breathe with more definition on this record, singing and crooning on more songs rather than her traditional bark. Altogether the first great indie-pop record of 2010 – watch your formulas people, these guys are already tearing it up.
