Grip my arms, look me in the eye, hold your pose. Feel my breath, don’t flinch when the heat hits your lips. I want to stand like this until we can’t stand any longer. I want us as one. Alice Boman on Facebook | Adrian Recordings [...]

 Leave a comment | I guess I’m in a “luminous” mood this week? Two posts in a row with luminous in the title? Yeah, bizarre. But good thing that doesn’t stop me from posting! Last Lynx are out with their new killer single, “Luminous Blue,” on the heels of the massive success of “Killing Switch,” which, despite my lack [...] [...] March 19th, 2013 | Tags: Dream pop, Electronic, Indie Pop, Last Lynx, Ocean Reels, SoFo Records, Sweden | Category: Artist Profiles, MP3, New Albums |
Leave a comment | One of our favorite bands on Knox Road (and of the Swedish-variety, which is always a major plus), Marching Band, has returned with their latest EP, And I’ve Never Seen Anything Like That. There are some groups whose material I will not hesitate to post when it comes our way, and Marching Band is one [...] [...] January 15th, 2013 | Tags: And I've Never Seen Anything Like That, folk, Indie Pop, Marching Band, Orchestral Pop, Sweden | Category: MP3, New Albums |
Leave a comment | Catching up on a few weeks worth of starred music and I can’t help but feature Sweden’s The Royal Concept. “Naked & Dumb” can’t be any more necessary of a track for our mid-week drabbery; it gets me back up on my feet and ready to roll. Seems like the indie world has ignored bands [...] [...] August 21st, 2012 | Tags: Indie Pop, Sweden, The Royal Concept, Universal Republic | Category: Artist Profiles, MP3, New Albums |
Leave a comment | Thanks to a longtime Knox Road reader, @MscTch, I was recently made aware of a stunning new song from the mysterious Swedish act, Shadow Shadow. Rumors abound about the group’s identity, but I don’t want to go making assumptions without knowing the true story here, and I imagine the info will be made public soon, [...] [...] June 11th, 2012 | Tags: Electronic, Harmonies, Indie Pop, It's a Trap, Shadow Shadow, Sweden | Category: Artist Profiles, MP3 |
One comment | Swedish music has found its proper place in my ears again thanks to Billy Momo, the duo of Oskar Hovell and Tomas Juto. As their website says, “Some call it “americana gypsy music”. Some call it “hick RnB”.” Check out a couple tracks below off their recently released debut album, Ordinary Men. It’s easy listening, [...] [...] January 30th, 2012 | Tags: Americana, Billy Momo, Folk Rock, Ordinary Men, Sweden | Category: Artist Profiles, New Albums, Stream |
Leave a comment | I used to talk about Swedish bands nonstop around here, discussing their “born-with-it”, innate quality of producing catchy, melodic indie pop. Lately, though, I feel like I’ve dropped the ball. No mention of the Swedes, no songs posted from Swedish bands on the rise. Let’s change that, shall we? (It’s always funny to me when [...] [...] November 22nd, 2011 | Tags: Indie Pop, Oriel Joans, Sweden | Category: Artist Profiles, MP3 |
Leave a comment | When former Lungfish front man Daniel Higgs joined Swedish noise-rock juggernaut The Skull Defekts on their Peer Amid album earlier this year, it seemed like a natural fit that played to the strengths of both parties. Now, taking things one step further, The Skull Defekts teamed up with Zomes, the solo moniker of former Lungfish [...] [...] November 14th, 2011 | Tags: 2013-3012, Lungfish, Noise Rock, Sweden, The Skull Defekts, Thrill Jockey, Zomes | Category: Album Reviews, MP3, New Albums |
Leave a comment | Magnason is way too cool for me. Sigh. Enjoy this unique and lovely song with most every instrument you can’t think of. Edda Magnason – “Blondie” [MP3] Purchase Goods via Adrian Recordings Edda Magnason on the web [...] August 30th, 2011 | Tags: Adrian Recordings, Edda Magnason, Goods, MP3, Pop, Singer/Songwriter, Sweden | Category: Artist Profiles, MP3, New Albums |
Leave a comment | RadioSeed is the moniker for one Peter Wikstrom, out of Sweden (which means I’m obviously covering the music). He’s set to release a new album, There Has To Be More, in January of 2011 via Japanese record label, Quince. Is it too early to consider 2011 Albums of the Year? Hmm. Conundrum! There Has To Be [...] [...] December 12th, 2010 | Tags: Atmospheric Pop, Electronic, MP3, Peter Wikstrom, Quince, RadioSeed, Sweden, There Has To Be More | Category: Artist Profiles, MP3, New Albums |
