To know what Jeniferever sound like, just go to their myspace page.
I'm not sure how a gray sky with various random constellations set against a black tree-lined landscape can explain sound, but their myspace art director somehow pulled it off. Their music is dark and beautiful, sad and quiet, delicate and occasionally pretty loud. Repetitive shoegazey beats, simple, yet layered and ever-building guitar, and quiet, half-whispered vocals make up the sound of every song on their nearly hour long album (they don't write short songs). At first, I thought the breathy, accent-heavy vocals (they're from Sweden) would get old. I also thought the lengths and speed of the songs would wear me out, but this is one of those albums that if you're in the right mood for it, it's incredible. I'll just come out and say it: It's dreamy. Recommended for late night driving, lying in the dark and thinking, or staring at a computer screen feeling sorry for yourself.
Everything I've heard from them so far is really good, but start where I started- their new album, "Spring Tides."
