New York dream pop darlings, Dead Leaf Echo, recently released the video for “Kingmaker,” the first off their forthcoming debut album Thought and Language.
Filled
with lofty inspiration, the album is more conceptual, “incorporating elements
of ambient, baroque, dream-pop, shoegaze, new wave, and goth,” according to the
band, and “follows the conception
and birth of a child and his discovery of thought and language.”
Heavy on affect, the band
creates a silky swirl of reverb laden guitars, sugary sweet vocals, and abstract
lyrics that are staunchly reminiscent of Cocteau Twins, which isn’t too
surprising given that the album is produced by John Fryer of Cocteau
Twins fame.
Thought and Language drops
on March 13th.
