Take A Listen Why Don't Cha! Miike Snow - Silvia

O how i've become obsessed with Miike Snow!  I  just recently got my hands on a copy of his self titled, debut album "Miike Snow" from 2009. 

Let me tell you..... I may be a little delayed on my discovery of how awesome this album is but it IS pretty freakin' amazing!  I can't really describe what i love most about the album or Miike himself (Maybe the super sweet way he spells his name with 2 I's?  I now want my name to appear as Kaate! HaHA). 

His sound definitely has a slight techno sound to it, which i'll admit i was not diggin' at first.  I'm a lover of all kinds of music, but i do find it hard to appreciate techno.  I just can't seem to get a feel for it no matter how hard i try!  Miike Snow adds something to it that makes me forget after a minute or two that it is actually techno with an electric beat.  Maybe it's his sweet, low voice or his clever way of taking a dance/rock/indie song and adding just enough techno sound where it does not offend! LoL.  I don't know how he did it, but i can't seem to get tired of listening to this album.

I find myself loving every track on it!  "Animal" (DEFINITELY!!), "Song For No One", Black & Blue", "Plastic Jungle", and the song above "Silvia."  If you hear yourself saying, "Nope, not into this." Or "This girl has no idea what she's talking about."  JUST HOLD YOUR HORSES!  Please do me a favor, go back to what you did in highschool when you got a new album. Go to your room, just you alone with the music and just listen.  And not just 1 song listen to all of them, then tell me what you think.

Enjoy Music!
