Norwegian indie band Snøskred (pronounce the Ø as the «i» in bird) are back with their first album since 2012. «Empty House» is an elegant exploration of bands with guitars in them to quote Snøskred themselves. After starting out as a shoegaze influenced act in 2012, Snøskred have reinvented themselves and the 2015 version sees them drop the cascadeing noise in favor of classic 90’s indie stylings. Referential, but not conservative, they mention bands like Pavement, Wilco, Talk Talk and Yo La Tengo as important influences on their new sound. Subtle, slow burning and introvert but still quite immediate and engaging. It feels like Snøskred have something truly timeless etched in the grooves.
