Song of the Week: ‘Babylon’ by Normandie

Sweden’s best kept secret are back in glorious form. Spearheading stand-out track Babylon, it marks their sophomore album of Dark & Beautiful Secrets that was released earlier this year.

Despite sharing the name of that with a French city – despite being from Sweden – their music is a tactile missile of mystery, magic and a colossal head-bang for the ages.

Threading the line between the dark and the light of hope, Hostage, Jericho and Atmosphere lead the way in a cut-throat hard rock approach to a fine taste in music songwriting that the likes of Living in Fiction and Written by Wolves would be proud of.
