2. Iconic EP, 2012
“A solid, decent dancefloor filler of an album. The vocals are infectious and most of the tracks will have you chanting like a follower of a queen bee. This is a nice refreshing pop album that doesn’t rely on over-the-top lyrics or lavish beats. just fun and liveliness attitude. this is what I hope pop continues to evolve with”
1. This Is… Icona Pop, 2013
“This album is a whole heap of fun. Honestly, it probably has considerable similarities to dance-pop in the charts that I deride, but there is just something vibrant about the way Icona Pop go about their business. This Is… simply has a fresh and enthusiastic vibe that sets it apart from your cookie-cutter chart material, and most of the songs rely on really strong, upbeat, memorable chorus hooks. The quality of the performance diverts attention away from some of the banal lyrics – and even turns them into something of an innocent, joyful strength on the best tracks like “All Night”.
