Simen Mitlid, Norweigan indie rock kingpin extraordinaire, has a killer new single for your listening pleasure that despite its name, is absolutely not a “Dead End.” Mitlid’s latest is approximately four minutes of laid-back indie goodness. A lockstep hi-hat groove propels the song forward, while pristine guitar tones wash over your headphones/speakers and yes, Mitlid’s hypnotic vocals seamlessly intertwined with the female backing vocals throughout the track is 100% a stroke of genius. Mr. Mitlid crafts a sonic utopia so enticing that you won’t want to leave. Upon second thought, “Dead End” is an apt title. After one spin, you won’t be going anywhere else!
