The Big Black and the Blue

Description

So what of the bountiful gems to be heard on ‘The Big Black and The Blue’? Well, whereas Wendy and Bonnie made a play for tripped out girl pop many moons ago, these oh-so-talented Swedes have made a play as purveyors of wise-beyond-their-years, country-tinged pop. The songs seep under the skin and claw at you. Surface playfulness is deceiving as the tracks take on a darker hue in places, but both elements work perfectly.
