Bear Coat – Black Hills (2014)




/Indie pop, Electronic pop, Alternative pop, Baroque pop/

Comment: Dublin, Ireland-based collective Bear Coat`s single Black Hills sounds in an intriguing way – its main template is based on the so-called renaissance indie pop (Real Estate, for instance) filled with gentle and mellow harmonies, however, being variegated with partly vocodered vocal lines and exuberant orchestrations. It is a contemporary sonorous counterpoint to fairy tales. The result is fairly marvellous.
