Langsom Dans -
Danish/American band Gliss makes a huge departure from their old sound on the new record Langsom Dans which is gathering comparisons to Beach House, Crystal Castles and Lower Dens. The LA based duo, consisting of Victoria Cecilia & Martin Klingman, pour their collective musical imaginations into recording timeless art pop with a precise Scandinavian texture that steps away from their previous work. The 12-track LP features heavy synths and electronic beats with Danish expatriate, Victoria Cecilia, stepping into the role as lead singer. The passionate vocal harmonies dictate the recordings with stories of coming out of the darkness into a new life, bringing to mind The XX, Portishead and Depeche Mode.
This is a full-length from a band that knows their sound, and having toured with the likes of The Horrors, Raveonettes and Editors, they clearly have the credentials.
The album is released through Modern Outsider and is already climbing into the Top 5 on the alternative specialty radio charts.

Gliss Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Shoot out the lights
I'm not going home
Alone tonight
I'm not going alone
Alone I'm not tonight
Bury my face in my hands
Repetition starting again and again
Telling everybody it's not my fault
Look out world here it is
Twenty nine hearts I meant to kiss
Ready or not I think it was
Twenty nine hearts melting the sun
Look out girl here it is
Twenty nine feverish acts I kiss
Ready or not here it comes
It's twenty nine
Twenty nine acts of love
Who knows
I'm walkin'
Alone in the spotlight
I'm holding my hand out for you
The hex of the ex
The hex of the ex
Bury my face in my hands
Repetition starting again to dance
I'm licking my wounds I taste the salt
I'm telling my body it's not my fault
Look out world here it is
Twenty nine hearts I meant to kiss
Ready or not I think it was
Twenty nine hearts melting the sun
Look out girl here it is
Twenty nine feverish acts I kiss
Ready or not here it comes
It's twenty nine
Twenty nine acts of love
Acts of love
It's just twenty nine acts of love
Alone I'm not tonight
The hex of ex
The hex of ex
Look out world here it is
Twenty nine hearts I meant to kiss
Ready or not I think it was
Twenty nine hearts melting the sun
Look out girl here it is
Twenty nine feverish acts I kiss
Ready or not here it comes
It's twenty nine
Twenty nine
oooooh ooooh ooooh
The lyrics of Gliss's song, "29 Acts of Love," depicts a person who has just come out of a heartbreak and is trying to move on from it by engaging in twenty-nine acts of love. The person is tired of being alone, so they decide to shoot out the lights, to not go home alone tonight. The repetition of burying their face in their hands, licking their wounds, and telling everybody it's not their fault signifies their guilt over the failed relationship, and they seek to make amends for it by engaging in acts of love.
As the person walks alone in the spotlight, they hold their hand out for the next person to take it. The hex of the ex lingers over them, but they refuse to let it overtake their actions towards finding love again. The twenty-nine hearts they meant to kiss signifies the numerous people that they are willing to love and be loved by, without expectations and limitations.
In essence, "29 Acts of Love" portrays a person who is taking control of their love life and is willing to engage in acts of love with anyone who reciprocates. The song is a reminder that moving on from heartbreak requires intentional actions towards love and affection, and not being afraid to take the necessary steps.

Shoot down
I am feeling defeated
Shoot out the lights
I want to forget everything and move on
I'm not going home
I don't want to face loneliness tonight
Alone tonight
I feel lonely and abandoned by love

I am trying to be strong and not let loneliness win
Alone I'm not tonight
Even though I feel lonely, I am still reaching out to love
Bury my face in my hands
I am hiding my pain from the world
