Kiss & Tell

Meet Sahara Hotnights. Four good-looking Swedish girls in their early twenties who dress well and play fantastic rock music. Now meet their third album, "Kiss & Tell." On this outing, they take all the great pop hooks of their first record, and all the rock drive of the second, and come up with a third one that's all of the above, and more. Their sweet bubblegum music is perfectly offset by the bitter lyrics about love gone wrong. From the '60s girl-group melody and quirky new wave guitars of opener "Who Do You Dance For?" to the punk straightforwardness and classic teen-pop catchiness of "Hot Night Crash"; from the disco thump and bittersweet lyrics of "The Difference Between Love and Hell" to the perfect West Coast harmonies of "Empty Heart"; this is the kind of music you wish was on the radio.
