Swedish electronic band Little Dragon has released their seventh album, “Slugs of Love,” showcasing their signature blend of wonky, funky, kaleidoscopic R&B and pop. This album sees the band exploring retro, sci-fi tinged dramas, syncopated synth funk, and cinematic epics, all while delving into themes of love and connection. From intimate, longterm relationships to the anxieties of releasing music, Little Dragon fearlessly tackles honest material, presenting it in an accessible and tantalizing package. With their unique sound and introspective lyrics, Little Dragon continues to captivate listeners and push the boundaries of pop music.
“Slugs of Love” also features collaborations with other notable artists, further enriching the album’s sonic landscape. On the track “Stay,” Little Dragon teams up with JID, delivering a refreshing breath of fresh air with harmonious vocals and poppy melodies. Additionally, “Glow” features a duet between Damon Albarn and Yukimi Nagano, where their voices echo out to the horizon over a sea of synths and percussion. These collaborations demonstrate the band’s ability to seamlessly merge their sound with other artists, resulting in an euphoric musical experience.
Little Dragon’s ability to create a pop album inspired by the complex mating dance of leopard slugs is a testament to their unique musicality and creativity. With nearly two decades in the industry, the band continues to evolve and captivate audiences with their infectious grooves. “Slugs of Love” is a must-listen for fans of Little Dragon and for anyone seeking a refreshing take on pop music.
