iTunes Review

You won’t find anyone named Miike, or even Mike, in the band known as Miike Snow. What you will find is a trio of young men from Stockholm, Sweden who craft electro-laced baroque pop that sounds elegant, catchy and sophisticated. Producers Andrew Wyatt, Chris Karlsson and Pontus Winnberg comprise Miike Snow. The latter two worked with Madonna, Britney Spears and Kylie Minogue but the band’s self-titled debut sounds more closely related to Air, Vampire Weekend and Peter, Björn & John. “Animal” opens with echo-deck dub rhythms bouncing against beautifully juxtaposed synthesizer and organ while reverb-washed vocals that sound imported from late-‘90’s twee-pop bands sing harmonies on an uplifting chorus. (The song was used on a 2009 episode of Gossip Girl.) “Burial” sparkles and pops with a mellow cosmopolitan groove and joyous melodies that contrast heavy-hearted lyrics. The delightfully melodramatic “Silvia” flirts with balladry before a synthesized garden of otherworldly soundscapes unfolds like early-‘80s Erasuresque techno-pop taken to new frontiers.

Customer Reviews

Miike Snow

This fantastic new album combines 80's style synth pop with beautiful vocals and hypnotising rhythms. Can't stop listening to it and have not felt this type of impact form an album in some time.

Quite possibly the best album of 2009!

There is something very refreshing about Miike Snow and they are one of the most exciting bands I’ve heard in a long time. I can’t really put into words just how good this album is, all I can say is buy it and find out for yourself.

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow !

Love it, love it , love it ! If you are a fan of this year's bright young things: Friendly Fires and Deadmau5, then knock yourself out with this great album. So catchy and poppy and easy to get into. Thanks to iTunes for the free track a while back too :o)
