Elliphant first caught my attention late last year with the excellent if occasionally nonsensical 'Down On Life', the kind of pop song that sort of screeches into sight and and stops traffic.
Sadly, not much off the Swedish singer's material tickled my fancy in quite the same way. Today, however, she's come up with something that certainly comes close to the dizzy heights of 'Down On Life'.
Electropop with a hint of hip-hop swagger, 'Could It Be' bodes well for Elliphant's forthcoming debut album on Dr Luke's Kemosabe imprint. Her English might not be perfect, but the song's theme of festering post-relationship staleness sounds out loud and clear, while the 'Requiem For A Dream'-inspired video works a treat.

I read in an interview that a couple songs from White Blood Cells were songs that Jack had written awhile ago and the two had never recorded. Dead Leaves is supposed to be one of those songs, so it could actually be about Meg. It was a contender for their first album I believe but was never put on it.
