I personally like how KEXP exposes us, the audience, to new artists and their ways of expressing themselves. Such as VÖK. Thanks to KEXP, I am about to add VÖK in my Pandora amd listen to them in the mornings from now on.^_^
Fantastic sound. I kept asking people at the festival about a song I heard and no one knew, it turned out to be 'Before' by these guys, amazing track. :)
I didn't knew Vök before. Dammit, I don't understand some of your songs since I don't speak Icelandic, but hey, listen: they are SO GOOD. "Before" rocks my socks, and the rest is very climatic too. Vocal is clear and strong yet intriguing. Love it.
nah, they definitely sound like The Knife. They still get to be Vok, and sound like Vok, but it's okay to say that Vok sounds like The Knife. some artists sound like other artists. doesn't deny their identity, just gives you some perspective on the ever-overlapping venn diagrams that make up existence, especially artistic existence. they still get credit as who they are, but it's also okay to derive likewise-sounding influences. The Rolling Stones sound like the rolling stones, but they also derived a lot of their sound (and namesake) from Muddy Waters and other less popular delta blues musicians. we all learn from somebody/something.
Don't insult them. They're better than The Knife. She's the front man and multi tasked . The guy does most of the programming. She gets props for her role in this band. Especially since they even went back to Scandinavian roots on one track.
Somebody can tell me what is the name of the pedal of the guitarist and the name of the effect please ? I look for a long time but I have never found! Thanks :)
