Several singles in, self-proclaimed ’90s bitches Aino Jawo and Caroline Hjelt exploded into heavy rotation this summer with the unstoppable, Charli XCX-penned “I Love It,” which might be the most euphoric breakup song of all time — a sawtooth sugar-rush shout-along that’s too busy reveling in reckless release to be spiteful. (The titular “it” has no referent more specific than the liberation of crashing your car into a bridge. Not that it needs one.) Excepting the screechy bro-step of “Ready for the Weekend,” The Iconic EP (Atlantic/Big Beat) mostly finds the Swedish duo displaying a touch more subtlety — not that that’s saying much — while remaining just as ingratiating.
