tell me where the story has its end show me all the characters you made up in your head did you make yourself the hero? did you make yourself less lonely? did you get a wife? tell me was it love at first sight? did she see you even though you never leave the house?

it's too late now there's nothing you can do though the hate is gone she is gone now too a message written on your bedroom wall was too well hidden, you would never know it was quiet she couldn't reach to you and you forgot the beauty you once knew a message written on your bedroom wall was too well hidden, you would never know a message written on your bedroom wall was too well hidden, you would never know a message written on your bedroom wall was too well hidden, you would never know

about

Rama Lama Records proudly welcomes Talking Flowers to the label family. The moniker of Malmö musician Astrid has been on our radar since 2021’s debut single and we’re happy to announce that her new release, the double single ‘Storytelling’ is released through us.

Playful and multilayered psychedelic synthesisers meets Astrid’s dreamy and mesmerising voice and creates an equally haunting and captivating soundscape that gives the listener a feeling of entering a Twin Peaks-esque world that is both frightening and alluring at the same time. The world of Talking Flowers is a world one often wishes that the real one would be a bit more like, a world of mystery and excitement and a lot less grey and beige colours.

Astrid “draws inspiration from the 60s, both when it comes to songwriting and recording techniques”, something that is obvious both on the debut release and the new Storytelling double single. She describes the new release this way:

“When we recorded Storytelling and Bedroom Wall I was listening a lot to Margo Guryan, and we were aiming for that kind of sound in the production. Although as usual I couldn’t keep away from the synths, so it might have ended up in a more futuristic version of the 1960’s.”

Less obviously shoegazey than the debut, but has a really abrasive industrial or post punk feel which contrasts well with the vocals. Reminds me of Curve or maybe early Cocteaus. Lovely stuff howa776
