Can’t help but think of summer with this track from Mardeen. Inspired by the hit tv show Dexter, let this song make you move with its syncopated guitar lines, catchy melodies and a chorus with island flavour. Anyone got a Vampire Weekend replacement song? I think so.

Get ready for the debut album from Halifax’s Mardeen, 12 gorgeous hook-laden alt-pop songs that overflow with bright shimmering guitar, catchy rythyms and unforgetable melodies. Think of Built To Spill and Teenage Fanclub accented with the swirling distortion of My Bloody Valentine. Imagine the anthemic vocal delivery of Bob Pollard (Guided By Voices) or early Michael Stipe mixed with the sweet high harmonies of Rivers Cuomo. Now picture yourself singing these songs in your head while holding on to the last moments of summer.
