I’m a tad tardy (as in late, not retarded) on this one. The third studio album from the Norwegian band Kings of Convenience actually came out in late October, but here you are anyway. : )
If you find yourself driving over 100 miles, baking with friends, staying in on a cold day, or snuggling with the one you love, I would suggest playing this album. It is quiet, boasts some very beautiful harmonies and really just soothes the soul.
Listen to Declaration of Dependence
And yes, there’s an obvious similarity to Simon and G.
Riot on an empty street always soothed my spirits. But it always made me think about what a riot in Norway would be like. Now days? Maybe not so wild. But in like 1092? Probably pretty insane.
KoC are cool.
