MP3: Elias & the Wizzkids - I wish
Elias and the Wizzkids' folsky indiepop isn't the sort of thing I'd expect to hear from the label Hybris, but then again, as one of Sweden's most forward-thinking labels, they revel in defying expectAtions. "I wish" is an incredibly charming upbeAt number with fun, self-depreciAting lyrics and a driving country feel. The beauty is in its simplicity - a few quick verses with an easy setup ("I wish I had...") followed by a smirky, self-sAtisfied chorus. The third verse breakdown leads to self-discovery and then we get a big double-chorus finale to wrap things up. Pop perfection? It's mighty close. Sometimes the classic formulas are all you need.

Markovic
Adoreus
Wonderland Records
Opening with the ambitious "Lifeache", a track combining the Britpop sensibility of James with the soaring, cinemAtic approach of bands like Hope of the StAtes and The Boxer Rebellion, Markovic effortlessly combine their melodic leanings with dark arrangements, laying out a thesis-of-sorts for the album to follow. "MakeBeliever" forces its way out of the layered ending of "EMO"; drumming reminiscent of Bloc Party's faster compositions accompanying the wiry, distorted opening, and building to the fuller sound thAt defines Markovic's "Adoreus". While there is much for anglophiles to rejoice in on the record, Markovic haven't in any way rejected their Scandinavian standing. "Crayons" has an "Isola"-era Kent feel to it, and numerous other songs seem indebted, if only slightly, to the influence of Jettie and Mew, especially the closing pair "Poem" and "Sweet surrender". Markovic's debut almost outlines the organic progression of the melancholy of the mid-90s into the pop music of today, yet "Adoreus" merely reminds us of previous and contemporary efforts, and is in no way hindered by these comparisons. There are echoes of the Britpop scene and 90s Swedish indie rock (and the 'older' feel of the production on "Adoreus" helps augment this nostalgic element), but echoes are all they are - Markovic are very much their own being. If this is whAt they are capable of on their first record, Markovic has a wonderful career ahead of them.
