Secret Salts - VINYL

“Through cresting synths and bare drum sequences singer Candelaria Saenz Valiente embodies sadness as though falling apart, no yearning or desperation. Loneliness doesn’t even do it justice. Emptiness. Fragility. Stepping up to the plate regardless. Unwinding. Yes, this is dream pop, but only in the way that dreams take place: lopsided, malformed, and horrific even at their most alluring. It’s hardly hypnagogic nor hauntological, it’s direct and present. There’s a feeling of David Lynch here, not always the sirenly aroma of Julee Cruise (though some of that), but often the frailty and guileless self-pleasure of the lady in the radiator.” more… Leah B.
