As one half of The Raveonettes, Sune Rose Wagner has spent the past seven years offering up noir-ish gutter rock and fuzzed out pop with his bandmate Sharin Foo. This week, however, the Danish-bred songwriter takes his bow as a solo artist with his eponymous debut, ten tracks of vintage Specter-esque sounds and hazy rock n roll. The album comes on the heels of a successful year for the Raveonettes, whose February release Lust Lust Lust has already landed year-end accolades from Paste Magazine, MTV2, and a host of others. Distinctly setting it apart from his output with Foo, Wagner's solo album is delivered exclusively in his native tongue. But, don't fret, Danish is a beautiful language, complimenting the US transplant's soothing coo perhaps even better than the English he employs on countless Raveonettes releases. The stand-out here is the blissful "Beruset of Forhadt," available for download below.
