Four years on from their debut album 'Deeper & Deeper', the Netherlands-based duo return with 'Whisper Om'. Merinde Verbeek's vocal lines in parts recall Angel Olsen, Adrienne Lenker (Big Thief) and Liz Fraser (Massive Attack, Cocteau Twins). Indie kids, new-wavers and electro-poppers alike will approve; Deutsche Ashram show themselves to be a uniquely colourful blend of Parquet Courts-esque bedroom pop, shot through with a Depeche Mode intensity.
