Principe Valiente shares dark new offering, "I Am You"

With a solid fanbase of 25k monthly listeners on Spotify Principe Valiente have share their second single lifted form their new album "Barricades". Titled "I Am You" it's a charging post-punk track with hazy shoegaze draped over it.

The pure excitement when I first heard "I Am You" made me want to listen to their latest album in full, and I'm not going to lie here but I found it to be one of the biggest 'hidden gems' of albums this year. 

In terms of the guitar tones there are big reminders that the band are actually a bit of a big deal, with a tour around Germany confirmed for September with dates also in Czech Republic and Denmark. 

The Swedish band sound like what I can only describe as Joy Division reincarnated, the ghostly vocals mixed in with crisp production brings "I Am You" alive and even had sounds heard in Molchat Doma's latest work.
