Band: MAYFLOWER MADAME
Who: A band from Oslo, Norway that specializes in a dark and distinctive blend
of post-punk, shoegaze and psych-noir. Their history, so far, includes two album
releases, Observed In A Dream (2016) and Prepared For A Nightmare (2020).

New single: NEVER SEVER
3rd shared track from their forthcoming
3rd longplayer, out in October.

Press info: “‘Never Sever’ shows a more direct and dynamic side of the band.
The characteristic elements of their deftly blended post-punk-shoegaze-psychedelia
are still here and their sound is still spun with alluring dark textures, but is now more profoundly interwoven with rays of light and a bittersweet melancholy.

On top of this, there is a touch of rock ’n’ roll swagger in the verses merging with
a delicate flow of dream-pop sensibilities in the choruses, making ‘Never Sever’ one
of their most accessible songs to date. Lyrically, the song captures a nostalgic feeling
of being unable to reclaim or – unwilling to let go of – a haunting past.”

TUTV: I can’t agree more with the above detailed press statement.
I’ll add this: with Never Sever MM score a hattrick following ‘Paint It
All In Blue’ and ‘A Foretold Ecstasy’. Three splendid psych-pop pieces.
Bring on the album!
