Tonight’s album of the week: KORIA KITTEN RIOT – SONGS OF HOPE AND SCIENCE

Helsinki indie rock band Koria Kitten Riot’s fourth album Songs of Hope and Science was released on Friday 27 January via VILD Recordings. On their new album, the band have tie-dyed their guitar pop sound with a 60s folk rock flavour and good-old-fashioned harmony singing. With its lyrics traveling between planets throughout the universe, the album’s themes are intertwined with hope and science. Lots of Beatles/XTC/psychedelic influences to the fore.
