Over the years Norway has given the world some spectacular hard rock and Black Metal and huge pop success via A-Ha and current pop icon, AURORA. But now there is another Norwegian act about to break big, they are from Oslo and are called Das Body. Following the release of their album, ‘Peregrine’ in 2019, they have blasted a string of fine singles into the world. The latest released last month is “You Look So Pretty When You’re On Your Knees”, and it combines everything that makes a perfect tune. It has sublime hooks, great beats, pop melodies, funky sounds, and vocals that would turn black metal heads into teddy bears. Vocalist Ellie has something of Kate Bush in her vocal style and that just adds another gorgeous layer to this wonderful track. The lyrics appear to straddle a line between fun and darkly strange. When this is playing you will dance, that is not an order, it is simply a fact! The single comes from the band’s forthcoming sophomore album, ‘True Vulture’, which is due out later in January.
