Here's another Danish indie band I have admired for the last few years, The Raveonettes. The duo consisting of Sune Rose Wagner (on guitar, instruments, vocals) and Sharin Foo (on bass, guitar and vocals). The name of the band is originated from Buddy Holly's song, "Rave On" and The Ronettes. You may notice some Buddy Holly and The Ronettes influences in some of their songs. The other more obvious influence that I notice in this band comes from the famous British noise-pop duo, The Jesus & Mary Chain.
Honestly, I came across this band by accident years ago on the internet when I was surfing for noise-pop & dream-pop material. Yeah, I am a sucker for noise-pop and dream-pop. I used to confuse them with The Ronettes due to the name similarity and furthermore some of their songs have 50s and 60s influences. The only difference is they incorporate more noise.
Here's a video clip from the great Raveonettes with the song, Heartbreak Stroll.
Lyric:
Take A Little Time To Get To Know Me
The Night Is Open Don't You Feel The Same As I
Cause I Can Do Everything
A Heartbreak Stroll With Someone Special
The L.a. Lights Will Never Be The Same
Tonight I Kill Those Memories
Get It All Now Cause I'm On The Prowl
Come On Baby Right Now
Get It All Straight Cause You're Whistle Bait
Come On Baby Right Now
Come On Baby Right Now
Feel The Earth Move When You're Shaking That Thing
Hard To Be Around When You Got Nothing To Gain
I Gotta Go Home And Sleep It Off
