Switzerland-based musical mastermind Dionys ‘Dio’ Müller returns with Worries And Other Plants, drifting between coastal breeze cool and heat-haze hypnosis on the Sweet Heart Sugar Love LP. Its sound is rooted in psychedelic indie rock, but it’s the surf-kissed riffs, repetitive rhythms, and languid grooves that make this release stand out. Like desert flowers cracking through sunbaked asphalt.

The eight new songs come across as a wondrous blend of influences from Allah-Las, The Velvet Underground, Ghostwoman, and Kid Koala, making for a mesmerizing listening trip through dystopian tension and blissed-out melody, along open highways and endless horizons, feeling both intimate and infinite.

Sweet Heart Sugar Love is out now digitally via Nice Guys Records.
