Stockholm-based indie rock duo Naive Men Leading the Blind return with “Two Stars With the Circus in Town,” a raw, intricate single that fuses power pop melodies with the grit of ’80s and ’90s American alt-rock. Formed in late 2022 by Martin Korpi and Niclas Jonsson, veterans of Sweden’s ska and punk scenes, the band blends influences as varied as Hüsker Dü, the Beatles, and classic country into a uniquely textured sound. The track, their second from a forthcoming EP, bursts with overlapping guitar riffs, expressive drumming, and lyrical hooks that reward repeated listens. Raw, thoughtful, and alive.
