Originally hailing from Athens, Georgia, pacificUV’s sound is one very much enthral to distinctly European influences – the blippy pace of Kraut Rock, the inherent melodic warmth of early 80s British synth-pop (especially on today’s MPFree). The duo’s debut album was described by Rolling Stone as a ‘masterpiece’; new album Weekends, released January 31st, looks set to garner similar accolades. Exciting stuff.
