Mirage

Already hot out the gate in their home country (they won a Swedish Grammy for their debut EP), Josefin Öhrn + The Liberation took the lessons taught by their psych and shoegaze predecessors and crafted a second album filled with the kind of mesmerizing repetition that made acts like Spacemen 3 and Silver Apples so intoxicating. The transition from “In Madrid” to “Rainbow Lollipop” alone provides the perfect moment to ingest a certain kind of candy. Öhrn’s narcotized whispers drift over the fuzz and amplifier hum, the perfect guide through this delightful trip.
