7 Days In Alaska – Dancing With Ghosts

Label: Pias
Releasedate: 14-12-2018

7 Days In Alaska is a pop formation from Norway. The guys released their first full length album called “Dancing With Ghost”.

An album like this is full of catchy pop songs, singalong and easy to remember. Songs you hear when you switch on the radio. My first thought was The Rasmus meets Muse. And these bands are both mentioned as an influence so that thought seem to hold ground.

It may be a bit more synth driven rather than the darker guitar sound that you would imagine with these. The guys don’t seek the comprehension, the lyrics having many repeats and also instrumentally you won’t see them going too wild but when aiming for that pop sound it is not expected. With these songs they will gather a young crowd that can grow along with them as they develop their sound and meet their heroes musically.
The band released “Cloud 9” as a single, which is also the song that stands out most to this album.

A young trio that will get themselves a good career in music if they keep going like this, work hard, play a lot of shows and grow their music along with their fanbase. It is a good poprelease which will please many youngsters.
