Last week El Perro Del Mar released her chilling 3rd single “I Was A Boy” & this morning a music video, a live take of the song directed by Swedish directors Belle & Light. The filmmaking duo who pride themselves on finding innovative ways of capturing “the live moment” place Sarah Assbring (otherwise known as El Perro Del Mar) against a stark background, letting her lyrics + delivery fill the spotlight. Of the poignant song, Sarah shares, “As a kid I was a tomboy for a long time. It didn’t really occur [...]

Mística y muy escandinava, como la recordábamos, pero tropical al mismo tiempo. Moderna, pero llegada de los 90. Repleta de colorido y vivacidad, pero sobre un fondo sepia. Pues eso, un 'fuego pálido'. Toques de Beach House, de Frankie Rose...muchos toques que nos vienen a la cabeza, porque cuando se habla de lo-fi y space-pop siempre emergen reminiscencias. Asociamos un buen-rollismo con otro de forma ineludible. Pero ella, El perro del mar , es única, y sueca. Sueca sí. A pesar del nombre en castellano, esas facciones cuadradas y el estereotipo de rubia, alta y [...]

Today sees the premier of the 2nd single from El Perro del Mar’s fourth LP, Pale Fire . The song, “Hold off the Dawn” is an electro-pop dreamscape that showcases El Perro del Mar’s Sarah Assbring in a more upbeat arena. Of the song, that deals with universal themes, Sarah shares: “In this world, you think you have no reason to believe in love or in anything much. Then one day, when you least expect it, a light appears on the far horizon. It’s a flickering light, begging you to come, [...]

I’m goin’ for to buy me some Monday| Monday Mail What is Monday Mail? Another Gothemburg export (like Jens ), I’ve really enjoyed what I’ve heard from El Perro del Mar (literally "The Dog from the Sea" in Spanish). My friend Kirstin introduced me a few years back (thanks, LastFM recommendations!). Honestly, my biggest issue has been that some of the music is slightly repetitive and…cutesy…cutesy/sad…? Is that the right word? Naturally my ears (er eyes) perked up when I saw [...]
The go-to gal when it's odes of heartbreak and loneliness dressed in twinkly, melancholic arrangements you crave to help get you through a gray-skied afternoon, Swedish songbird El Perro del Mar keeps chugging out that depressing bewitch-craft on "Change of Heart", the first single off her latest collection, the recently-released-in-the-State s EP Love Is Not Pop . A bit musically denser than the twee orchestral seasonings that framed her previous works (yet still somehow still able to grasp her signature stamp of weightlessness), "Change" rides along a '70's rock-inspired soundbed [...]
[ download ] Since her debut release in 2005, Sweden's Sarah Assbring has steadily won over the hearts and ears of music critics and the blogosphere at large with her winsome blend of 1960s pop songwriting influences and heartbroken melancholy. To a certain degree, El Perro del Mar isn't a surprising sprout given that she has been nurtured in the same fertile Gothenburg scene as artists including Jens Lekman and Jose Gonzalez . However, Assbring's compositions have always been set apart thanks to her distinctively cool vocal [...]
