Smile's "Phantom Island" LP out Today! Featuring Robyn & Primal Scream's Andrew Innes!

Smile It’s Friday Joakim Åhlund and Björn Yttling release their first album today since 2012. Smile…their joined collaboration results with indie that is both teasing yet staid…the yellow van—painted black! With experimental rock neither overly optimistic nor lugubrious. Futuristic in quality, their technology is bridled with an underlying sensitivity. Phantom Island, their latest contribution is a layered rhythmic dialogue. Having partnered with the likes of Charli XCX and Lykke Li…Smile’s new sound is the melodic cross between forrest and jungle…neither sweet nor salty and introduces a smoothness that beats with a utopian cadence …. Phantom Island is complete with bells, whistles, and a cat’s pajamas. ‘Call My Name’ featuring a partnership with Robyn also acts to reaffirm the groups affinity for all that is blue and yellow.
