Sound it Out # 43: Junip - “Line of Fire” (MP3)

Junip is a band from Gothenburg, Sweden, comprising members Elias Araya, Tobias Winterkorn, and José González. Though their first EP came out way back in 2005, they are only now releasing their second full-length album, Junip, which arrives on April 23rd. Singer/guitarist González’ much-lauded solo career has kept him away from the band for big chunks of time. It's been worth the wait.

Junip's new single “Line of Fire” is an atmospheric gem. Whispery vocals, exotic percussion and an overall ominous tone make for a highly addictive song. Download/listen below.

This just may show how “out of it” I am, but I got a Dream Academy vibe from this track. I liked it.

I’m listening to Rope & Summit EP now. Really enjoying it. I sort of get a Fredrik vibe.
