Single Review


Audrey Audrey EP
Stereo Test Kit Records


Article written by James S
May 4, 2005.

You may not expect it from a band sharing their name with that god awful woman in Coronation Street (you know, the one that used to be in Rentaghost), but everything about Audrey’s self-titled debut EP is exceedingly pretty. Not least the band themselves. They’re four Swedish indie girls, barely out of their teens judging by the press photo, and therefore they are automatically the best new band on the planet.

Okay, so that may be hysterical heterosexual hyperbole but this is really rather pleasant. Eschewing the typical penchant for bouncy Scando indie-rock in favour of fragile cello-laden wanderings that make Low’s output pre-’The Great Destroyer’ sound like Motorhead, they take turns to sing in accents ranging from full-on Bjork-alike to crystal clear anglicised tones. Like their looks, they’ll be an acquired taste for many people, but they’re certainly one I’m glad to have acquired already.
