Gliss - Beauty

- Cor they look a bit like Placebo...even Brian Molko

What a caramel-ly track...it's so smooth and well kept. Vocals definately reflect the title of the track - beauty. Yes, lead singer Victoria does sound like she's a chain-smoking jazz singer who could pass off as a man, but I think this adds to the complexity and mystery of this track. 'you save my soul, it's still any empty hole' should be a lyric that makes you cringe, but in this track it works perfectly. The perfect bridge between old skool (My Bloddy Valentine) to the recent influx of Swedish instrumental acts (Sigor Ros, Surrounded). Highly recommended.
5/5
