Soffia Bjorg – I Lie

| Soffia Bjorg - I Lie |
Release Date: Out Now
Iceland, as a nation, seem to do
things in terms of quality rather than quantity and that certainly applies to
this debut release from the diminutive Soffia Bjorg. The punky garage riff
behind ‘I Lie’ is somewhere between Graham Coxon, the Strokes and the Breeders
which is an infectious place to be as the chorus melody bounces around just the
way the indie disco ordered. Bjorg’s voice has a 70s quality to it as she
switches from almost apologetic verses to defiant, lip curling choruses with
the help of a shouting choir. If Soffia isn’t performing somewhere in a tent at
Glastonbury next year then someone at the BBC isn’t doing their job and Michael
Eavis will be gutted to have missed out. Soffia Bjorg is ready to come in out
of the cold so step aside, losers.
