The new BWO/Bodies Without Organs greatest hits record "Pandemonium greatest hits" will be out on April 9.

The new BWO video for "Lay your love on me", their entry for this year's Melodifestivalen, is now online: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d63oOSOxr_s
Not their strongest material IMO, but still pretty decent.

Bodies Without Organs are ex-Army Of Lovers man Alexander Bard, Marina Schiptjenko and Martin Rolinski (who shot to fame on Swedish reality television program Popstars). They're pretty big in Sweden and Eastern Europe and this is their third album. I like pop, and even though I was never a fan of Army of Lovers, I was indeed a very big fan of Page (a Swedish synthpop band that Schiptjenko used to be in) when I was younger. As far as cheap Euro dance music goes, I'd say that this is quite well executed, and there are a handful of infectious choruses on "Fabricator" (i.e. "Save my pride"). I won't spend too much time though trying to polish a turd, if you want some great Swedish pop music just go and buy pretty much any ABBA album you don't already own, instead of this tat.

FWIW, the Swedish chart site Hitlistan is now called SverigeTopplistan.

Here's the video for the new BWO single "Let it rain": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CpX_ZVDN7QQ
I can't help it, but I really have a soft spot for this kind of over-the-top perfect pop.

Swedish pop act BWO (Bodies Without Organs) will release their third album "Fabricator" in September. The first single "Save my pride" hits radio next week.
