Syme is a Norwegian band from Bergen. It's a harbour town and their music is as unpredictable as the sea. Smooth and quiet at one time, rising up without warning the next. They namecheck Radiohead and Sigur Ros, building their own brand of soundscapes. Syme is able to catch you off balance with surprise covers, like Modern Love (David Bowie).
They have an EP, Modern Love, and a full length album, Swing Swing. A new album is scheduled for release in November.
