Love Dance preview new album with the loose-limbed gloom pop of "Voice & Loyalty"

14 September 2017, 10:15 | Written by Andrew Hannah

After a bit of an absence, Bergen duo Love Dance are getting worryingly prolific as they prepare to release their new album later in the year.

Following on from "All The Time", Kristopher Straus and Eirik Vestrheim go a little bit looser, a little bit more industrial gloomy on "Voice & Loyalty".

Straus' voice booms out over clanging bass and ever-so-slightly funky drums, while light keyboard lines mix with echoing synths and dirge-like electric piano. There's a sense of foreboding to the track, mixing the grey skies of Manchester with the often equally grey Bergen. It sounds like a battle at times, matching the song's theme of staying to fight for a relationship, even when it seems there's an easier way out.

"Voice & Loyalty" is taken from the Cul-de-sac album, due out in November via Brilliance.
