Easily digestible acoustic pop on new EP from Swedish group the Electric Pop Group which makes the perfect soundtrack to a summer's day
Review
The Electic Pop Group come from Gothenburg in Sweden and are based around brothers, Erik and Martin Aamot. They play their own brand of laidback up- beat acoustic pop music as their new record, the digestible 'The Sunrise EP', reveals. It is suitable title for it as all four songs on it are sunny sounding in tone.
It opens with ‘I Could See the Lights’ which gently sets the tone for the other songs with their breezy acoustic and electric guitars and Martin's simple vocals which perfectly compliment the style of music. The vocals miss a few notes here and there, but this only adds to the stripped down simplicity of the songs.
The songs do sound quite similar, but despite this they never make you want to switch off. It finishes on ‘Come and See Me’ which has the chorus most likely to stick in your head.
The whole EP has a beautifully innocent air about it and serves as the perfect soundtrack to a summer's day.
