The Danish/American duo, have been dividing their time between Berlin, Los Angeles, and Copenhagen. Finishing the new recordings in Berlin, Gliss' new music reflects the city's night life and limitless art scene and takes on a darker and edgier sound, while keeping a solid pop structure. This is a band that knows their sound, and having toured with the likes of The Horrors, Raveonettes and Editors, as well as performing for the royal family of Denmark , they clearly have the credentials. While they are principally known for producing and mixing their own music, the multi-instrumentalists Victoria Cecilia and Martin Klingman have also worked with Gareth Jones for mixing, who is known for his collaborations with Nick Cave, Depeche Mode, and These New Puritans.

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.

Sad Eyes
Gliss Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Love lies
Show me your tired eyes
Show me your bed side
I really really want a good time
I love you honey
I really love your blue eyes
I'm into something
Something good

oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh
Love lies
Show me your sad eyes
Show me your dog fight
I've been tossing and turning nights
Oh show show me yeah
Show me your blue eyes blue eyes
I'm into something
Something good

oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh
That’s right, that’s what I'm talking about
I'm into something something good
I'm into something something good

I'm into something I'm into something
I'm into something I'm into something

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Gliss's song "Sad Eyes" express the desire for a passionate relationship, where love is not necessarily straightforward and honest but rather elusive and tumultuous. The opening line "Love lies" suggests that the singer's love interest may not be entirely transparent, and there may be hidden truths and emotional complexities in their relationship. The repeated phrase "Show me your tired eyes/Show me your bed side" evokes intimacy and vulnerability, as if the singer is asking their partner to reveal their innermost thoughts and feelings.

The chorus of "Sad Eyes" reinforces this theme of emotional ambiguity and intensity with the repeated line "Love lies/Show me your sad eyes/Show me your dog fight." The juxtaposition of "sad eyes" with "dog fight" suggests that the relationship is a battle between conflicting emotions and desires. The singer wants to explore this complexity and see all sides of their partner, including their sadness and their fight to overcome it.

Despite the emotional turmoil suggested in the lyrics, the song ends on a positive note with the repeated refrain "I'm into something something good," suggesting that the singer is willing to embrace the challenges of the relationship and find something meaningful in the midst of the chaos.

Overall, "Sad Eyes" is a song about the complexity of love and the desire to see all sides of a partner, even the darker, more turbulent aspects of their emotional landscape.
