Maribel #2 - You Bring The Sadness

Facebook

Oslo four piece Maribel caught me under their spell when I caught them supporting Lanterns on the Lake last month, now in anticipation of the release of their album 'Reveries' (due next week Feb 13th via Splendour and available here), the band have shared a suitably Lynchian (and definitely not one for your office based lunch break) video for new track "You Bring The Sadness", with its surreal and slightly sinister film-noir dreamscapes it's the perfect folly for the soft and eerie track.

The ambience weaves beautifully between light and dark as Rebekka Markstein sweet, dreamy vocals float delicately over the harsher, foreboding washes of ghostly guitar twangs and deadbeat drums, haunting and gorgeous. Two tracks in and 'Reveries' promises to be 2012's 'Creatures of an Hour', aesthetically beautiful and completely intoxicating, (hopefully) an album to fall in with.
