Emmon - Torturous Pleasure

"It's been fourteen years"

Emmon's new album, Closet Wanderings, was recently released in Sweden. A member of pop band Paris, Emmon has now ventured out to create her own electronic sound. Her first album was pretty good and I even got a chance to see her live, so I was curious to hear her new work. Some of the songs seem a little more organic than last time, which is definitely a positive thing. While I am an uber-fan of synth music, there's always a danger of it sounding too synthetic. Emmon does a good job of balancing right on the edge. One of my favorite tracks on the new album is the simple, melodic Torturous Pleasure. Besides the single, it's the most catchy thing on the album and would sound great on Swedish radio. The verses are especially lovely.
