Top 10s for 2005: Samira Englund (My Enemy)

MP3: Viola - Tedium rock

New track today from Finnish melancholy dancepop act Viola. Unlike a lot of other Finnish acts who dabble in gothitude (HIM, The Rasmus, et al), Viola actually writes good songs and has an edge to their sound. This is most definitely not the typical watered-down bs you might expect from that part of the world. Dark pop hooks and a beat you can dance to. If you've been listening a lot of various New Order/80s nostalgia soundalikes that keep popping up, Viola mines many of the same influences, but updates their sound with their own flair. Very recommended and available from ye IAT webstore.
