NOW + 4EVA. ARCHITECTURE IN HELSINKI.


Architecture in Helsinki are back with their new album NOW + 4EVA and its better than EVA. They have easily been my favourite band since hearing 'Hold Music' and 'Heart it Races' back in '07 when I started to educate myself about good music. Since then, I have watched them evolve and perfect their sound. I even studied their music, and analysed their song 'The Owls Go' for my Year 12 Viva voce exam. 

Architecture in Helsinki are best at taking listeners into another world filled with rainbows and smiles, and their music just makes you so F#!*ing happy. I even bet that if you have never heard an Architecture song in your life, after one song, you will be bopping along and tapping your feet to the beat with a smile on your face.

NOW + 4EVA builds on the sound that Architecture played with in their last album 'Moment Bends', and polishes it with pop perfection. It definitely gives a nod to the 80's with its many synths, but it definitely feels RAD and not daggy. Architecture's lead singers Cam Bird and Kellie Sutherland share the vocals as usual, and it certainly keeps you guessing listening to the new songs.

The album is out on March 28 here in Australia and also in New Zealand. However, Oz and NZ people can go over to iTunes right now and stream the album in full. It is nothing short of amazing.

If you're from Melbourne, Architecture in Helsinki are also launching a concept store to coincide with the release of the new album. The store will be 'part gallery, part listening space, and part retail emporium' and located at Melbourne Central. The launch party will be held on Thursday March 27 from 6-8pm. The store will be open from March 28 up until April 6, so make sure if you are in Melbourne to check it out. It is a very interesting concept, and I can't wait to see the space.
