", the much-loved Grammy-nominated Swedish release their new album Slugs Of Love on Ninja Tune. Recorded in the musical oasis of their Gothenburg Studio the same studio they have worked in for almost 20 years on Slugs Of Love they bring their distinctive blend of soulful pop, electronics and R&B all underpinned by lead singer Yukimis instantly recognisable vocals to the fore across 11 tracks that encapsulate the full range of their diverse individual musical influences. The record features a guest turn from (/) on 'Glow', a 'slow dripping glittery ride to a daydream in wonderland' and a collaboration with respected East Atlanta rapper (who is signed with J. Coles Dreamville label) on the previously released single 'Stay', a song which charts the ups and downs of a relationship. The album also contains the titular single 'Slugs Of Love' a joyous, upbeat track which the band say they imagine 'being played by a bunch of youngsters with rubberboots in different sparkling colors' which arrived alongside an official video also directed by Unlimited Time Only and featured the band themselves. Elsewhere is the uplifting 'Tumbling Dice' a track that urges the listener to savor the time they have: a 'cheers for this moment, for this life' and a reminder to 'celebrate every breath, we will be gone in a flash.' and 'Gold', 'a reflection on the riches that money can't buy,' the band refract pop hits of the 90s and 00s with the Whitney Houston channeling refrain of the chorus laying over a sluggish, synth heavy groove." -
