For the last, but certainly not least, in a string of excellent singles from their 4th LP “VIVA HINDS”, the Spanish duo have teamed up with Fontaines D.C. frontman Grian Chatten on “Stranger,” a track that taps both artists’ most whimsical inclinations. A head-in-the-clouds indie pop rock ballad that rides on a heart-skipping beat, “Stranger” is cute without ever becoming cloying. Listening to the final chorus, you can almost picture Ana Perrote, Carlotta Cosials and Chatten singing to themselves on a screen split in thirds, each lost in their own heads, finding unexpected joy in loneliness and giving their daydreams room to breathe.
