Corniglia - Oh My Love


Out of Perth, Australia comes this rare gem called Corniglia. Their debut single (released in November last year) should send shockwaves on every Indie Pop listeners radar. Oh My Love, which is the name of the song, is a repetative (in a good way), minimalistic and dreamy tune. It has this really downplayed production but still manages to create a really catchy sound, which one can probably thank the groovy basslines for. On top of the hazy, floating soundstage Oh My Love is a lovestory, though Corniglia works with meta narratives and the song seem to have more than one layer. It handles the contemporay endeavours of prolonged or eternal life and the want to always "play it cool" and "keep it togheter". In summary, Corniglia, with their dark, danceable sound, is another example of pop music that isn't only kitsch and placard messages, but the carrier of profound content. If you're into Oh My Love as much as Weekly Indie Pop is, be sure to keep your eyes open for Corniglias debut album bound for this year.
