The LK are an experimental indie band from Malmö, Sweden. The band is a duo playing melodic, electronic indie rock built from unlikely instrumental takes, noise and chunks of acoustic sound. Formerly known as The Lovekevins, the band consists of Lindefelt, a sound artist, and Fredrik, a songwriter. They've received press at Spin Magazine, Stereogum, Pitchfork Media and elsewhere, and have toured Sweden, Norway, Germany, England and the United States.
