Elenette - Att göra en hit

Besides maybe Love Is All, Elenette are the only current act I can think of that absolutely nails the sound of 80s Swedish postpunk: rigid funk offset by off-kilter synths and jangly guitars, a sound firmly rooted in pure pop hooks, but also in straight-up oddness. That's probably what I like best about them actually, the subtle just-not-rightness of it all. Based on description alone, I would've never bothered. For real- slap bass and horns? It's a ghastly combo on paper, but I'm telling you that they make it work. They keep it weird, they keep me interested.
