Single Review
Shiny Darkly
Soft Skin
October 6 2014 (Crunchy Frog)
9/10
Words: Leanne Crowley
Springing forth from the current hive of psychedelic activity that is Denmark, another bunch of crazy dark-clad Danes, Shiny Darkly, make their mark on the scene with the release of ‘Soft Skin'.
Officially their first UK single (many will no doubt still recall the majesty of live favourite 'Diana', which was first heard in the UK two years ago), ‘Soft Skin’ combines doom-laden guitars, the haunting, Ian Curtis-like, vocals of Kristoffer Bech, edgy electronic synth drones, and relentless energy that ensures this track hits all the right nerves in the listener, and in all the right places. Maybe the stuff of nightmares to some; to others, aural nectar.
