If Vivian Girls and the Pains of Being Pure at Heart had children, and if those children were somehow Swedish nationals with super cute pixie haircuts and angelic, lilting voices, then they’d probably bear a remarkable resemblance to noise pop trio Liechtenstein. From dreamy, harmonic vocals and fuzzy guitar lines to catchy choruses with bubblegum lyrics, their brand new debut album, Survival Strategies in a Modern World, pretty much has it all.
I don’t say this very often, but I’d be highly surprised if they don’t eventually blow up. You heard it here first!
