I don't actually know what i'm talking about, cause i'm from Finland, and
I've only read pop a few times. I would like to say that i found the writers
very good, and what I escpecially liked was how they in an article with pulp,
really asked Jarvis questions which he hadn't prepared, and that gave a
picture of how not witty he really is. And I really liked an article of bjork.
One negative thing is that they are maybe a little too subjective, and that
is not good if you don't agree with them.

John Darnielle and Peter(?) Hughes(?), the Inland Empire acoustic-lo-fi
experience hits Studion. They actually sound exactly like their (or his)
recorded stuff. Fast strumming, intense vocals. Highly recommendable.
The set here in Stockholm consisted both of the duo together, but also
sessions with each guy performing solo. I think, but this is really
strange, that they did a cover of a Tia (the Swedsih Blondie) song
called 'Blind', 'Blinded by Love' or something!!! Can someone confirm
this?
But hurry down to Lund to see them. They would play all their best
stuff in Lund because Linkoping woudn't be any good. In Linkoping they
eat bands like Mountain Goats for breakfast. ;-)

Subject: Singles pre-reviews...
I just can't let these new singles and EPs pass by without comments (reviews
will follow):
1. Coo - "Heavenly Blue" (Tangerine)
This band will receive my highest score and best review ever (when I
get to that point in the stack of CDs). Such innovative guitar riffs,
fantastic sound, gorgeous lyrics (even though they're a bit low),
I BEG ON MY BARE KNEES THAT THEY WILL COME AND PLAY IN SWEDEN !!!!
because I have heard how even more amazing they are live. ANYONE?
ANYWHERE? I know we have booking agencies / companies subscribing
to this list. Here's your chance! No one should be surprised that
they are from Finland, because that's apparently the next Scandinavian
country moving into the "Big" indie scene. Coo _is_ indie. Coo _is_
amazing. Coo's "Heavenly Blue" _is_ the next CD5 you're going to buy.
2. Doris Days - "Quiet Withdrawal" (Some Pearls)
I have never heard such addictive urban trip-hop/ambient in my life.
And their full length "Live In Poland" is even better! Fantastic
rhythms, scattered noise throughout every song like telephone
conversations, rain, wind, whatever! Nowhere near Portishead (which
many of the reviewers have thought suitable to compare them with)
but extremely and totally 120% better. Okay, they are originally
from Linkoping, but I have never met them, never heard them before
this single. If one trip-hop/ambient record was rewarded "album of
the year" then "Live In Poland" is my choice. So beautiful vocals
from Lisa Carlioth I melt on the spot. And the urban sound background
sounds fits the production so well it's amazing. I don't know which
one of the guys who sings, but his voice is so pleasant to listen
to. The lyrics are so thought out, I can't help but love it! Just
say "I held you, you held me down..." or "I dressed you, you undressed
me..." is so... thought through I can't imagine a Swedish band would
think of it! But they do, and they have! Slask Records (sub label
Some Pearls) have a gem here that I hope will be ground breaking
in Sweden and abroad. I have not heard something this beautiful
and addictive from Sweden in a long time. If you're even only thinking
that you maybe like trip-hop and ambient, you better get this album
(and single) immediately.
3. Loosegoats - "Country Crock" (Startracks)
Like former member Jens said, this _is_ the best they have done so far!
Lo-fi of course, rattling guitars of course, Christian with his
"J. Mascis" vocals of course. Lo-fi can't sound better than this.
4. Blissful - "Vitamins" (AWSF)
Oh my oh my, the perfect single (the album, also called "Vitamins"
isn't even close to this single unfortunately, even though it does
have the song "Vitamins" on it). Two hits, fantastic, devastating,
beautiful, far from what I have heard with the band earlier (only
compilation tracks). If you're going to buy ONE SMASH HIT single you're
not going to take out of your CD player this year, well, this is the one.
5. The All Janet - "Second" (AWSF)
One of my current favourite West Side bands (together with Backfish
Popundret, Mufflon 5 and Blissful) today - beautiful "edgy" music
with amazing guitars and "Stone Gossard vocals" when the songs hit
the electric guitar-filled choruses.

HM! The gig in Linkoping was about 90 minutes long. If that didn't include
all their best stuff I suppose the audience in Lund brought sleeping bags
to the gig? Well, I liked their music, especially the song "In sickness and
in college" because I could really recognize my own situation in it ('the
books gets longer, the liquoer gets stronger'), but I think they could've
shortened it a bit. But if all street musicians had these texts it would
certainly be much funnier to take a walk in the centre of Stockholm.

Well, they play at Studion so it's somewhat more problematic getting
tickets outside Sweden (in fact, it's pretty much a hassle when you
live outside Stockholm even...) because (I think at least) the only
places where you can buy tickets are from Mega, Freak Scene and
Pet Sounds (all record stores in Stockholm) and at Studion of course.
So you could always try to contact the venue directly, though I don't
have their number, unfortunately. Oh, and as far as I know the minimum
age is usually 18, but I'm sure those who live in Stockholm on this
list can give you far better help.

Backfish - (AWSF) debut album producer Ken Stringfellow from the Posies
says that the Posies are taking a break right now, and that
is why he has found the time to produce Backfish's album
Apparently he is getting lots of producing offers, and only
picks the ones that interest him the most. That ought to say
something about Backfish! (Source: Scandinavian Indie)
Dada Girl - from Finland have replaced their bass player! The band's new
bass player is Mikko Raisamo from Finnish favourites All Stars.
(Source: Scandinavian Indie)
Fireside - (StartRec) will also be opening for Sebadoh (last Selected News
told about Loosegoats opening for them in Stockholm) on their
tour, though this time it is in Munich (Germany) on November 6th!
(Source: Scandinavian Indie)
Gentle Tuesday - from Eskilstuna are working hard! There are plans in
the making to release a 7" single on US label "Kitty boo"
this winter! Stay tuned! (Source: Scandinavian Indie)
Happy Todd - from Kalmar will go to the studio in a few weeks time to record
songs for an upcoming CD single which is to be released on
Spinsign early 1997. The Spinsign compilation CD previously
reported about here has been cancelled on the other hand.
The band opens for Bob Hund in Kalmar at Studentkaren on
November 6th. (Source: Scandinavian Indie)
Lemonator - (Warner Finland) have decided on a release date for their
upcoming CD5 "Superb", and that's on November 11th, 1996! If
the single will be released outside Finland or not has not
yet been decided and no release date is set for the album yet
either. (Source: Scandinavian Indie)
Penniless People of Bulgaria - (AWSF) enters the studio this week in order
to record seven new songs. A CDEP is planned
for release on AWSF early 1997. The band has
also recently made a video for the song
"Velocity". (Source: Scandinavian Indie)
Shallow Soundwave - play at Underground in Gothenburg on November 29th,
so those of you who are not in Linkoping to watch
Soundtrack of Our Lives know where to go instead!
(Source: Scandinavian Indie)
Wilma - (BMG Finland) is a band one should supposedly look out for, according
to many sources. They are a band that has recorded three albums so
far. They sing in Finnish and have a female singer. The music is
something in the vein of Portishead and Radiohead. Sort of moody pop
with sequencers, guitars & quiet vocals. Sometimes orgasmic guitar
walls and sometimes low, calm and simple. Very melodic. They appeared
on the Finnish top-list program "Listan" on FTV last thursday, where
they played two songs from their new and recently released album
"Suuri Valkea". (Source: Scandinavian Indie)

That's true, and I don't want to sound like I don't trust anyone, but
perhaps it won't make it through the whole "CD chain"... no, but seriously,
one really has to trust those who sign up on these chains, or there would
never be any chains at all. Maybe we can have some kind of contest with
the CD as 1:st prize when it has been through the chain? Or we could make
extra CDs as well of course, but then those who want a CD will have to pay
for it, and then we're probably looking at some kind of law suit, right?
Any thoughts on how to solve this one?
I have received letters from people who have the equipment necessary
to make them, and who are willing to help out, so it is definitely
worth discussing at least.

Well, it's still Sunday in California as I type this. The first show is
Monday, the 4th of November at Fez. I don't know the time or the address.
The second show is on Thursday (the 7th) at Spaceland, 1717 Silverlake
Blvd, in Los Angeles. I think that it starts at 9:30, but you'd better
check that detail for yourself. I'm going to make the trip down from SF to

The phone no. to Studion is 08-34 44 54.
I think the minimum age is 18, but I'm not totally sure. I don't really
pay attention to that anymore, since it's a long long time since I had
that problem myself... (must've been when Killing Joke played in Stockholm
around 84-85, and riots ensued outside the venue because very few of the
true fans had reached required age...)
Sometimes bands that play Studion do an all-ages matinee in the afternoon.
Bob Hund and Refused have done it at least.

They are from Iceland. It's a band formed by a bunch of filmmakers or
theatre guys, if memory serves.....unfortunatley I can't remember a damn
thing about their sound, but I think Albert Siggurdsson from this list
posted something about them. You there Albert?

Toby showed their video at Alternative Nation (MTV) last night.
I really liked it. Mail Toby and request the video. It's not that
hard to convince Toby.
I've managed twice.
Mail him at: alternative.nation@mtvne.com
Good luck and watch out!
