Icona Pop Debut "All Night"

posted in: Music NewsPop

Pop music fans who still listen to radio have spent the majority of the summer hearing an EDM-laced single called “I Love It” played in endless rotation. The song’s frenetic beat and catchy “I don’t care” refrain might as well be the audio equivalent of fun in the sun, and now the Swedish duo behind the smash have returned with an equally exciting follow-up.

Icona Pop have only just begun their takeover of American airwaves, and those needing proof need look no further than “All Night.” Built on a foundation similar to “I Love It,” the latest from Icona Pop offers a catchier hook and far more enticing verses. In contrast to “I Love It,” this track manages to feel less like a novelty and more like an actual song while still maintaining a sense of fun. You can stream “All Night” at the end of this post.

All Night was released along with news that the Swedish duo’s debut album, This Is¦, will hit stores September 24. Additionally, Icona Pop have unveiled plans to embark on a massive world tour in the months ahead. You can view the full list of dates at the end of this post.
