The first single from Isoberlinia’s upcoming album is called “Leave Your Body” and is a dreamy ballad about dealing with loss. Now the song has been reinterpreted and remixed by the shoegaze duo Pink Milk.

Pink Milk drags the song down to a new level of darkness, drowns it in reverb and transforms it into a sensual ballad where the spirit of Leonard Cohen sings along with backing vocals from Pink Milk.

The first single from Isoberlinia’s coming full length album is out now! Listen here.

”an evocative composition that captures a dreamlike and otherworldly essence”
– Darkenin Heart

”mesmerizing melodies and ethereal soundscapes”
– Destroy/Exist

After many years of work, the duo Isoberlinia are finally set to follow up their critically acclaimed debut EP Isoberlinia released 2019. Their first full length album Silhouette Bound is due to be released this fall and is a dreamy and heartfelt collection of songs that would lend itself well to any mysterious television production or film.

Ruin’s second single is out now!

”Entirely unconventional and refreshingly innovative, we found Eden exciting and intriguing.”
– The Wild Is Calling

Listen here.

Anyone who has been to live shows within Stockholm’s alternative music scene recently has probably not missed Ruin and their live performances. Like a sad cry from the underground that finds its way up through the concrete, emotional dark vocals emerge from the speakers and are met by a melancholic synth mat, combined with hypnotic drums and dark bass. Magnificent, powerful and enchanting. Golden Lights is the debut single from Ruin!

”Golden Lights sounds as if Xiu Xiu made the soundtrack to Drive. In other words: absolutely unbelievably good. Do not miss!”
– HYMN

Listen here.

Pink Milk is back with a new ballad. Close your eyes and get high.
See the band live at Viva Sounds tomorrow.

Listen to ”River of Glass” here.

”an absolutely winsome dark ballad” – Destroy//Exist

”A fantastic shoegaze track!” – IndieTapes

”River of Glass will remind some of us what it feels like to fall in love” – Mystic Sons

”A soundscape to soak in and stay in” – HYMN

We’re very happy to present the new EP from Seabiscuit: ”They Learned to Fear the Name Seabiscuit”.

Listen here.

”Unlike many other instrumental acts, Seabiscuit is not out to appear harsh or melancholy ‘difficult’, but here we have five tracks that breathe hope, sunshine, and flower meadows.”
– Slavestate Magazine (review: 4 out of 5)

”fluid dreams and post rock in a wonderful dance together.”
– American Pancake

Proud to release the first single from Seabiscuit’s upcoming EP today 🖤

Available on all digital platforms here.

”The band have managed to create something extraordinary” -HYMN

The uncrowned king of melodic instrumental alternative rock is back with an EP titled ”They learned to fear the name Seabiscuit” – a collection of five songs recorded live in Gothenburg, Sweden, during two days by the four members of Seabiscuit, creating a vibrant welded groove and interaction between drums, electric guitar, bass guitar and synth. The music has a heavy focus on strong melodies while keeping the soundscape in constant change, with nods to all the alternative rock bands you listened to during the early 2000s – although examining the songs closely, one might even find some well hidden influences from Jazz music.

To celebrate the release of the EP, there will be a release party on Pustervik in Gothenburg on may 20th when the band will perform the EP in its entirety.

We’re very proud to unleash this monster upon the world! Pink Milk’s second album Ultraviolet is here.

“Ultraviolet is a strong record that enshrouds you with its atmospheric goth-rock charm from the very beginning. Pink Milk are tapping into a niche section of the current music scene, and manage to ride the wave of shoegaze resurgence while keeping a distinct sense of individuality, which is no mean feat by today’s standards.” – THE LINE OF BEST FIT (7/10)

”Their gothic darkness becomes your new guiding light” – GAFFA (4/6)

”Maria’s sensitive voice and the beauty of the soundscape almost makes me break down completely.” – GAFFA

”Pink Milk slows down the tempo, but the music feels just as engaged as the most explosive songs” – HYMN

“Definitely worth checking out for fans of Cocteau Twins, The Jesus and Mary Chain and Slowdive” – Zero Magazine

“The latest single from the upcoming album Ultraviolet has everything you love about them” – 482Mhz

”With an almost funereal character and a very euphonious sound, Everything Must Die, completes an interesting run of singles which pave the way for their anticipated sophomore full length.” – Destroy//Exist

”Elegant and dark dreampop” – Darkenin Heart

”Drenched in reverb, ‘Everything Must Die’ is a striking new release” – Electric Sound of Joy

”A very underground paradise”  – Indie Criollo

”Pink Milk has something really fascinating. The distant songs are original enough and yet elegantly familiar and the production elegantly minimalist.” – Songs of the Day/Päivän Biisit

”A prime act in contemporary dreampop and shoegaze” – Destroy//Exist

”Once again, there is power in the band’s despondent lyrics” – Darkenin Heart

”very intense dream pop” – Indie Criollo

”Another magical track from the duo” – HYMN

Listen here

Influenced by The Cure and The Smiths, Pink Milk combines 90s style heavy upbeat drums and miserable lyrics about losing someone in their fourth single of the year, titled ”Here Comes the Pain”.

”Zero Magazine are impressed. Friends of atmospheric rock, dark wave, shoe gaze and post-punk definitely have to check out this band!” – Zero Magazine

”Beautiful and ghostly, just like Pink Milk at their best” – Popmani

”Pink Milk’s connection to the eighties is strong” – Darkenin Heart

”Pink Milk are bursting with artfulness in 2021” – Destroy//Exist

Japanese koto strings meets a Swedish 80s rock ballad inspired by Marie Fredriksson of Roxette, wrapped in a ghostly atmosphere driven by a heavy beat when Pink Milk presents their third single of the year.

Today, we invite you to celebrate the anniversary of a future event – 8 years from now on July 11th 2029, when the resistance will launch an assault on Skynet and take over the mainframe.

Pink Milk have transformed the best soundtrack of all time into an even darker, hypnotic, atmospheric style. Many have seen the band play this song live, and now they’ve recorded it to be heard by everyone.

Let’s make this song reach Arnold and Brad.

”Dreamy guitar magic capable of waking the dead” – GAFFA

”the dreamlike airiness of Cocteau Twins and Julee Cruise maxed out to the absolute fuzziest” – Destroy//Exist

”like getting lost in a magical forest” –– Savant Musikmagasin

“a shoegaze banger which should echo between the houses from north to south throughout the summer. Simply top class!” – HYMN

”Blue Eyes (River of Glass)” is the first story from the collection of dark tales found on the upcoming album by Pink Milk. The single is an 80’s inspired reverb-filled ballad about not getting the one you want.

Since returning to Sweden from their acclaimed shows at Iceland Airwaves, Reeperbahn Festival and JaJaJa in London in late 2019, just before the pandemic broke loose, the praised dark wave duo Pink Milk have been working hard on finishing their second album that is coming out this fall.

It’s out! We proudly present to you: the debut album from Childmind – a psychedelic rock masterpiece that keeps on enchanting us with its twists and turns and beautiful melodies.

We pressed a very limited edition of this one. 100 copies, white vinyl. Available through Bengans records store.

Listen to the whole album:

🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤

”Golden psychedelia that is shimmering in ethereal goodness.”
– Clunk Magazine

”An unexpected psychedelic instrumental that will sweep you off your feet.”
– Found

”One second it’s pulsing kosmiche electronica and the next it ramps up into a heady rock mantra worthy of comparison to King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard. It bodes well for his upcoming album”
– Doubtful Sounds

Indeed a name for psych-rock-Sweden to keep its eyes on this fall.”
– Festivalrykten

”Childmind himself has a clear influence of early psychedelic rock, marked by his acoustic guitar following the electric guitar’s fuzz effects”
– Synths of Eden

”Glans convinces right from the start and there is much that speaks for a bright future.”
– HYMN

This is the last single from Childmind before we unleash the album. ”Glow” is something quite different in comparison to the previously released singles from Childmind.

We’re hearing the psych rock-influences that we’re used to hearing when it comes to Childmind, but we’re also getting some Motown and soul. This is truly one beautiful song, telling a story about one of the biggest experiences in life. Enjoy!

Oh, and on Saturday, we’re having a big release party for Childmind’s debut album. See you at Pustervik, Gothenburg – around 7 pm.

”Turbo” is the second single from Seabiscuit’s debut album, coming out on August 15th.

Today we are very proud to release the very first single from one of our latest signings Isoberlinia.

We’re proudly releasing this little gem today! A wonderful piece of lo-fi instrumental music that we’re playing on repeat at the office all day!

”The debut single ”End Up Dead” definitely makes you want to hear more from Seabiscuit.”
– HYMN

In a dark space between 80s/90s shoegaze and electronic music, we find Isoberlinia. This new duo from Stockholm has created a perfect collection of songs that sounds so good that it would be a crime not to release it.

Their soundscape is built upon atmospheric soothing guitars driven by electronic beats, creating an almost trip hop-feeling, and embedded within is a voice that’s as soft as it is enigmatic.

Isoberlinia’s combination of reverb-drenched guitars and electronic elements reminds us of acts such as The Bowery Electric, Sneaker Pimps, Memoryhouse and Slowdive(band), but they still have a distinct sound of their own that’s completely unique.

The first single ”Heartcage” is out on May 15th, and it’s the first taste from their debut EP that we are releasing on August 29th.

When listening to the Gothenburg based act Seabiscuit, you enter a strange little world of its own. The sounds captivate you and suck you in, and once you’re in – you want to stay there and hide forever.

You find yourself enjoying the forgotten soundtrack of a suggestive retro video game that never existed, combined with lo-fi guitars playing mystical adorable notes. The atmosphere created by the music tells you a story, and you can almost see it pan out in front of you. A distorted drum beat is blasting away in the horizon, and dreamy crisp chords are spreading out across the vivid coloured sky. You like it here. This could definitely be your home. Here comes the next song, and it’s a beautiful lonely guitar strumming away in the darkness, sounding as if it was played in another time. I’ll never leave this place, you think to yourself while closing your eyes tighter and tighter.

We are proud to welcome Seabiscuit into the Black Hair family and to present the first single ”End Up Dead” – coming out on May 9th.

The self-titled debut album is out on August 15th.
