I haven't had a chance to listen yet myself, but if it's anything like his previous work, it's well worth grabbing.
The Sound of Arrows post new video, move to the UK, hook up new management, etc.
Swedish indie act The Sound of Arrows have a new video for the song "Into the clouds": https://vimeo.com/6034355
Said track will be released as a 12" single (and download) on September 21. Apparently the band has also relocated to the UK in the hopes of "making it" (at least, I assume so) and has hooked up with Big Life Management (Klaxons, The Verve, etc), so expect to hear lots more about them in the near future.
