This week on Featured Album Friday, I am showcasing the 2009 self-titled album from Miike Snow – Miike Snow!
(Yes, I’m actually back this time!)
Here is the description of Miike Snow from their Last.FM:
Miike Snow are Andrew Wyatt, Christian Karlsson, and Pontus Winnberg. Named after an acquaintance with an “i” added for extra flair, Miike Snow recently signed with Downtown records. Their self-titled debut was released May 12, 2009.
While you may not have recognized Karlsson and Winberg by their full names, you have surely heard their work as production duo Bloodshy & Avant. The duo has written and produced for Kylie Minogue, Madonna and Britney Spears and claimed a Grammy for their work on Britney Spears’ Toxic. Wyatt is fresh off co-production duties with Mark Ronson on Daniel Merriweather’s April release, Love And War.
I’ve had a taste for indie bands with an electro-pop feel as of late, and that is probably what you will be seeing for the next while. Either that, or slow love-ballad-y type bands that pull my heartstrings. Regardless, this is a great album and the stream is below. Enjoy!

Hey Vanessa.
I’m glad you found my site without having to stalk me on Facebook, but I’m sorry that I didn’t have your album cover! I guess having Humbug hosted up on here may have fooled Google a bit, but that is the nature of the biz.
Let me know if you need help finding that cover still, but I look forward to meeting you soon!
