#18 – BLUE by iamamiwhoami

This album caught my attention by its description as an “independent audiovisual project” and I assume the visual part adds a lot to a performance, as it so often does.  I was expecting something a little more experimental, and indeed, the opening track is definitely something to get excited about.  After that, though, I was less excited about the Swedish europop album that followed.  Being Swedish, there were the obligatory moments with Abba-ish harmonies and sounds, but on the whole I would describe it as The Swedish CHVRCHES, which is certainly not a bad thing.  It just isn’t as artistically interesting as I would expect from someone who was put in a category with Bjork (by Spotify, at least).  Some very cool moments, anyway.
