Just listened to the Miike Snow album twice and I’m completely in love with it.

I want to take it out to dinner and flirt over the most expensive meal on the menu whilst drowning it in white wine and then take it to a bar to soak it in at least 14 mojitos followed by the most outrageous David Carradine-style romp back at my place.

I can’t do that. Firstly, I haven’t got a physical copy of the album – just mp3 format and secondly it’s just completely ludicrous.

What I can do though is put two songs up for you – I’d love to put the entire album up but that’s not what this blogs here for…This blogs meant to inspire you to buy the album. Which in this case, I think a few of you might actually get the plastic out.

The band are from Sweden and before comprising this pop-electro-soul-folk masterpiece they were producers with a heavy belt of big tracks including Britney Spears’ Toxic and a few Kylie Minogue hits. Although Miike Snow sounds like a solo project it’s actually the name of a Japanese film director.

They’re playing a few dates here and there – Hoxton Bar & Grill in London on the 14th of July is where I will be. Tickets are about a fiver!
