Album Review Little Dragon - Ritual Union

I didn't begin the year tasked with finding four quite terrific new albums from my homeland of Sweden.    Yet it happened with Lykke Li's Wounded Rhymes, PB & J's Gimme Some, Those Dancing Days' Daydreams and Nightmares, and now with Little Dragon's Ritual Union.    Little Dragon assures itself significance in modern pop with urgent R&B vocals piled upon fresh synth work and spacey rhythms on their third LP.    Stereolab meets Broadcast with the thickly layered beats and quirk like that of Mux Mool or Dabrye.    The evolutionary tracks: Please Turn and Shuffle a Dream.
