I can detect the Orange Juice resemblance. I admire that Swedish bands (TWIG, Days, the Bridal Shop, Beach House, Boat Club, Studio and etc) are reviving the soothing and amiable sounds of the '80s and '90s... I just cannot get over the fact of how much the guy's voice sounds like Edwyn Collins from Orange Juice... nothing negative, just astonishing!!!
