Our Take

Swedish sisters Klara and Johanna Söderberg, better known as First Aid Kit, have returned with their third studio album, "Stay Golden". And boy, does this album shine bright like a Swedish summer's day.

The duo's signature folk sound is present throughout, but "Stay Golden" sees them experimenting with new elements, from lush string arrangements to haunting, ethereal vocals. It's like ABBA meets Fleetwood Mac, with a dash of Lana Del Rey thrown in for good measure.

The album kicks off with the ethereal "My Silver Lining", a soaring anthem that perfectly encapsulates the Söderberg sisters' knack for crafting hook-laden, introspective tunes. From there, we're taken on a journey through heartbreak, resilience, and plenty of sing-along choruses.

Standout tracks include the rollicking "Master Pretender", the dreamy "Cedar Lane", and the hauntingly beautiful "Shattered & Hollow". Throughout, the sisters' harmonies are tighter than a Swedish sauna, blending seamlessly to create a sound that is at once familiar and fresh.

Overall, "Stay Golden" is a triumph for First Aid Kit, showcasing their growth as songwriters and musicians. It's an album that will have you dancing one minute, and wiping away a tear the next. So grab your closest fjällräven backpack, pour yourself a cup of lingonberry juice, and bask in the golden glow of First Aid Kit's latest masterpiece. Trust us, you won't regret it. Cheers, darlings.
