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 ↴
You got nothing nothing to lose
And just the good times, the sad times will pass
You know you've got to give it a chance
Because the cool cool side is coming up
Oho oho oho but you love me I love you
Let's just let's just so much for beauty
You gotta save my soul
There's just nowhere to go
You walk slow I'll run after you in the sunshine
Oho oho I want it I really need it so much so much
I've got to give it a chance
Its just ooh what’s the point I'm wondering to myself
I've got nothing nothing but time
You’re just a beauty accuse some bodies
You got the arrow bang bang bang you’re dead
You gotta save my soul
It’s just an empty hole
There's just nowhere to go
You save my soul
It's still an empty hole...you got nowhere to go
La la la la la la la la la la ala la la
I've been wondering, you been wondering too
Like like I do just like I do
You gotta save my soul
It's just an empty
There's just nowhere to go...............
You save my soul
It's still an empty hole...you got nowhere to go
The song "Beauty" by Gliss is a meditative and introspective reflection on the complexities of life, love, and identity. The lyrics suggest that amidst the confusion and chaos of existence, there is a beauty that can be found in unexpected moments of connection and shared experience. The first verse speaks to the idea of seizing the moment and living without fear or regret. The line "Kiss lovers on the side of the road" suggests a willingness to embrace passion and spontaneity, even in public places. The repetition of "nothing to lose" reinforces this notion of taking risks and living in the present.
As the song progresses, there is a sense of ambivalence and uncertainty about the meaning of life and the pursuit of happiness. The lyrics "It’s just an empty hole, there's just nowhere to go" convey a sense of hopelessness and purposelessness. However, the chorus offers a glimmer of hope and possibility, with the plea to "save my soul" implying that there is something worth salvaging in the human experience. The final verse brings the focus back to the connection between individuals, with the repetition of "like I do just like I do" suggesting a desire for intimacy and mutual understanding.
Overall, "Beauty" is a poignant and emotive celebration of the human condition, with all its highs and lows, joys and sorrows, and moments of profound beauty.

Because the cool cool side is coming up
Trust that things will get better in the future
Oho oho oho but you love me I love you

Request emotional salvation or assistance
It’s just an empty hole
Feelings of emptiness or lack of fulfillment

I've got to give it a chance
Intention to try something new or take a risk
Its just ooh what’s the point I'm wondering to myself

Having ample opportunity, but perhaps lacking motivation
You’re just a beauty accuse some bodies
Expressing admiration for another person's appearance
You got the arrow bang bang bang you’re dead
A sudden, strong attraction to someone
La la la la la la la la la la ala la la
A nonspecific vocalization conveying emotion or positivity
I've been wondering, you been wondering too
Shared curiosity or contemplation
Like like I do just like I do
Mutual understanding or appreciation
You save my soul, It's still an empty hole...you got nowhere to go
Continuing to feel unfulfilled or without direction despite seeking assistance
