Said The Shark - All You Want
‘Silly Killings’ is the Copenhagen based Said The Shark’s second album. Primarily made up of singer Maya Saxell (the girl) and Kim Oxlund (the boy) they create songs that are something and nothing yet somehow everything. You’ll know what I mean when you listen to ‘All You Want’ (from their debut ‘Always Prattling On About Wolves’), a slice of pastoral bliss that shimmers so delicately yet wields a mighty impression making force. Saxell’s vocals are key but the surreptitious playing adds gravitas giving the piece a sense of gorgeous otherworldliness. ‘Silly Killings’ is a deeply impressive sophomore, a sleeper that’ll catch you unawares but will soon reside among your favourites of 2008.
