Spirit

Spirit is a glam rock record packed with bright synthesizers, flashy guitar and choruses you want to sing. Released in 2013, it hit No. 3 at home — their own best. Many fans and reviewers name it as this band's peak. The songs are light and pop, but the riffs and rhythm have hard rock's push, so it never becomes mere nostalgia. It was also their third consecutive gold from the debut onward; by this point their popularity at home was completely established. It polishes 1980s flash with a contemporary pop sensibility and lifts the listener immediately. “Night on Fire” and “So Happy I Could Die” became singles and both became signature songs. The skill of stopping one step short of cheapness coexists with the certainty of the playing. Fun comes first, but the technique supporting it never compromises. That commitment is surely what separates them from the many bands of the same type — as does a Nordic clarity of sound. Perfect for when you want cheerful, colourful rock 'n' roll.
