Marble Sounds

New songs, supplemented with songs from the rich repertoire of the past 15 years. Marble Sounds has occupied a unique position in the Belgian music landscape for years. Met Leave A Light On the band already scored a straight Belpop classic in 2013 and since then the band has continued to challenge itself. For the new and sixth record, Core Memory, which appeared in March 2025, frontman and inspirer Pieter Van Dessel changed course. Piano and strings made room for a ‘fuller’, almost electronic and pure pop sound with synths in which the spirit of Giorgio Moroder and Top Gun wanders. “Metamorphosis succeeded”, wrote the Dutch OOR. In our own country, too, the reviews were lyrical. Humo described the album as “seamlessly forged indie pop with the fresh sincerity of a debut”, and De Morgen was “knocked over once again” by the sparkling pop songs. Radio 1 bombarded the record as “Album of the Week”.
