Jeniferever - Choose A Bright Morning

Drowned in Sound has expanded from a small online music zine into a whole gig-promoting, record-releasing empire, and their tentacles have streched as far as Sweden to uncover something lovely here. Jeniferever are a quartet from Uppsala whose debut album, with its loveorn lyrics(“with a broken heart and her name on the tip of my tongue, oh Emily...”), breathy vocals, Kevin Shields-style glide guitar(essentially the fingerwork excised, and only the afterglow remaining), floating, rootless basslines, subtle unobtrusive drumming and interesting auxiliary instrumentation(French horn, banjo), has the slightly dazed atmosphere of a more acoustic My Bloody Valentine.
