MP3: Elenette - Att göra en hit

Besides maybe Love Is All, Elenette are the only current act I can think of that absolutely nails the sound of 80s Swedish postpunk: rigid funk offset by off-kilter synths and jangly guitars, a sound firmly rooted in pure pop hooks, but also in straight-up oddness. That's probably what I like best about them actually, the subtle just-not-rightness of it all. Based on description alone, I would've never bothered. For real- slap bass and horns? It's a ghastly combo on paper, but I'm telling you that they make it work. They keep it weird, they keep me interested.

Swedish indie act Elenette will finally release their debut full-length album "Neurosor" on April 8 via their own Meta Rekords in collaboration with Sheriff Records and Warner Music.

Elenette - Jag hatar män (video)

Check out Swedish indiepop act Elenette's new video for "Jag hatar män": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9HVjkZI1hx0

Elenette's debut EP "Autenticite" is streaming at Last.fm: http://www.last.fm/music/Elenette/Autenticitet+EP

Bzangy Groink on the new Elenette EP, due out November 30 via Cosy Den: http://www.bzangygroink.co.uk/wordpress/archives/2007/11/24/elenette/

Both Elenette and The Nancy Wha have added multiple new tracks to their respective myspace pages. I think I prefer the spunky energy of the latter over the psuedo smooth R&B sounds of the former.
