Amandine - Solace In Sore Hands flac album

Singer Olof Gidlöf's upper-register vocals still sound like a frail cousin to Sufjan Stevens or Sam Beam, and Solace's despondent narratives are pretty much what you'd expect from a country with the purported highest suicide rate in the world. Who says hardship make us strong?" a perplexed and resigned Gidlöf asks on "Silver Bells," a fair barometer of Amandine's general tenor. But this time around, the guitars are more often electric than acoustic, the soft/loud contrasts greater, and the crescendos tend to burn rather than smolder.

Second album of Scando-Americana from Sigur Ros label-mates. Americana always was a slightly open-ended musical sub-category, but it makes even less sense when applied to a band from Sandviken in Sweden. True, Amandine used be known as The Wichita Linemen, singer Olof Gidlöf, has a sweetly melancholic voice in the style of Neil Young or Sufjan Stevens, and some of their songs feature a banjo. But there’s a distinct absence of twang or hee-haw
