Swedish sisters Klara and Johanna Söderberg first made their names with feather-light chamber-folk confections that echoed the soaring sweetness of Fleet Foxes. A cover of that bandâ™s Tiger Mountain Peasant Song even helped launch the then-teenagers to YouTube fame back in 2008. But in 2014, styles have changed and so have the Söderbergs: First Aid Kit‘s major-label debut, Stay Gold, moves well beyond the portentous prettiness of the pairâ™s 2012 breakthrough, The Lionâ™s Roar.
The music is lighter on its feet and less haunting, but the lyrics have picked up some additional heft along the way: “Iâ™d rather be broken than empty / Iâ™d rather be shattered than hollow,” the Söderbergs sing in a particularly barren moment from “Shattered & Hollow.” Their vocals still ring out sweetly,…
but thereâ™s a welcome edge to their delivery throughout the record that digs deep. Even when a song like “The Bell” never accelerates beyond a lightly lilting amble, thereâ™s potency to it.
First Aid Kit could have easily gotten stuck in a sullen rut, opting for stately beauty over the versatility showcased here. But Stay Gold is a statement of staying power; a collection of bright, smart, substantial songs that stick around. By the time the Söderbergs rustle up a bit of countrified rowdiness in “Heaven Knows” — a sure set-closer at the bandâ™s concerts for years to come — theyâ™ve fully reset expectations. First Aid Kitâ™s music has always been charming, but the duo has found the capacity to thrill, too.
