Description
Releasing their 2015 debut through FortunaPOP! and with a 6Music playlisting under their belt with the lead single from it Chorusgirl return with second album Shimmer and Spin. With their sound rooted in shimmering indiepop with an undercurrent of darkness Chorusgirl blend the sparkle of 80s bands like The Cure and the Cocteau Twins with the close harmonies and surf-inspired indie of Dum Dum Girls and La Luz. While tension runs through the album there are plenty of bright pop hooks to enjoy. The lyrics run from the abstract to the personal are delicate and angry but layered underneath is a measured dose of noise and happy fizz. “Unveiling all of your vulnerabilities for the world to hear is a bold move and a quality that gives the band’s second album substance. Their occasionally poppy optimistic sound acts as an effective juxtaposition to the undercurrent of darker lyrical themes.” Loud & Quiet magazine 8/10
