watch: “hold off the dawn” – el perro del mar
Since it’s “Best of” list time*, it’s also time to talk about albums/bands you think got overlooked this year. And one I think people have been sleeping on? Pale Fire, the latest from Sweden’s Sarah Assbring aka El Perro Del Mar.
[* Next week, I'm gonna get my life and my best of 2012 lists together. Promise.]
If you haven’t heard her latest, here’s a chance to remedy that by checking out her video for “Hold Of The Dawn.” The video was shot in a dimly lit Stockholm studio, which feels like the perfect setting for keeping the sunlight out.
Watch for: how the only thing stopping Sarah from starting a full-on dance party at 2:55 is that she has to keep singing. But, really, all she wants to do is dance.
Pale Fire is out now via The Control Group. El Perro Del Mar is playing a show tonight at Korjaamo in Helsinki, if you happen to be in the neighborhood.
