We're still working our way through releases from June, but actually the debut EP from 'Toy Savoy' slipped out at the end of May, but we still wanted to give it a brief mention. They're a band we've featured a few times before, after we first spotted them playing 'Trondheim Calling' back in 2017, so the formal release of their debut album has taken a while, but I think it's worth the wait.
The 5 piece band write dreamy, slightly off-kilter indie pop, and the 4 tracks on their self-titled EP demonstrate what they're all about, opening with (the previously featured) 'In Blue' with a big catchy chorus, and warped guitars that carry the track forward - and also a bit to the side. 'Something New' has a laid back, abstract feel and I particularly like the leftfield ending which takes the track way off into the distance somewhere. 'It's You' has a soft and hazy melodic vibe, whilst 'Church' has a stream of irresistible tunes and it's probably my favourite track on the EP.
This is 'Church':
