premiere: Death and Vanilla – A Flaw in the Iris
Malmö, Sweden group Death and Vanilla share the haunted opening track from their forthcoming LP Are You A Dreamer?, premiering here today with our highest recommendation for fans of Mazzy Star, Broadcast, and Twin Peaks. "A Flaw in the Iris" is a shadowy, softly twinkling late night pop-noir apparition that the group calls "the perfect soundtrack for driving at night in the middle of nowhere. A hypnotic pop song that is dreamy and close at the same time," adding, "We feel that the new album balances much on the border between dream and reality, somewhere in a twilight country with both light and darkness on the horizon." Are You A Dreamer? is out May 10 on Fire Records.
