New Album from Should We Run

In contemporary pop music it's often hard to find music where both the lyrical and musical content seem to have been made with equal effort. However, if one takes a look at alternative music in the indie scene, this phenomenon is much more common. Should We Run is a band that's both contemporary viable and still challenges the mind. Existential ís the name of their new album (released November 19th). The record is a seven track indie treasure that, after a dozen of play-throughs, still manages to surprise me with elements not recognized earlier. Sometimes it's a bit experimental and qirky, but Should We Run always return to their key elements with the guitar carrying the listener through the alteration between the female and male vocals. Weekly Indie Pop's favourite track is the emotive and thoughtful Man of the Desert. It's a seven minute long story that makes me think of Conor Oberst and the Bright Eyes on speed. Should We Run truly is a treasure just waiting to be found.
