THE SONG: So Caroline Says.
WHO: Silverlake.
WHY IT’S HOT… Mid-tempo, hypnotic track. Lead singer Sally-Ann Parker’s controlled but emotive vocals echo the breathy delivery of Goldfrapp. An steady snare drum carries the song on its shoulders. The song title is a bit of a head fake to Lou Reed’s Berlin songs but, hey, maybe it’s about the same Caroline dealing with getting old. Haunting.
WANT MORE? The entire EP is worth a listen and then some support.
