A Utrecht band that's kept its dreamy, melancholic sound intact since the early '90s.
If you want their essence, start with 'Palomine' and 'Story In A Nutshell'. That's the sound they've quietly refined for decades.
They arrived with 'Palomine' in 1992, a debut that set their template: Carol van Dijk's voice floating over guitars that could be both hazy and sharp. Songs like 'Story In A Nutshell' and 'The Ocean, My Floor' show how they make introspection feel sturdy, not fragile. They've never chased trends, just kept building a catalog for people who prefer mood to flash.
They formed in Utrecht in 1992 and released 'Palomine' that same year, followed by 'Lamprey' in 1995. The lineup shifted over the years, Peter Visser left in 1998, Herman Bunskoeke in 2005, but they kept recording through the 2000s with albums like 'Dust Bunny' and 'Private Suit'.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
