Forming in Sweden around two years ago as only a duo, Death In The Afternoon released their first EP at the start of the year as a 5 piece.

I’ve read a few articles that have basically said that this is what Interpol would sound like if they had synths. As I love Interpol, it’s not a comparison that has put me off the band. I suppose it is easy to hear why they have been compared to them. If you really must have a comparison, they sound a fair bit like Depeche Mode. The dark guitar sounds over heavy synths and bass with an agressive drum.

What I love about Death In The Afternoon is how Christian, Linda and Amanda’s voices compliment each others. It sounds so romantic. Very 80s.

Oh they’re possibly named after a cocktail or an Ernest Hemingway book- either reason is pretty cool.
