Much more impressive than Moneybrother's latest album is Anders Wedin's constant output of new material (this is Moneybrother's fourth album since 2003). The quality of his songs might vary, but even at his lowest, Wedin's never really that bad, his worse is quite medium. This is why I'm not too bothered about "Mount Pleasure" not being as solid as Moneybrother's first two albums. It's a predictable collection of songs, and, except the first single ("Just another summer"), there aren't too many songs that I'd miss if this album was forever erased from the history of music (harsh, I know). As we'd come to except by now, it's a lot of songs sounding like Bruce Springsteen, Thin Lizzy and a few that could have been done by Monster (Wedin's band before Moneybrother). Let's hope that Moneybrother will release a new album not too far away from now, and that it'll be both fresh and absolutely amazing, "Mount Pleasure" is just about too "meh" for me and my dear ears.

Moneybrother's third album "Mount pleasure" is the last in his contract for Burning Heart and it sure feels like it. Not in the sense that it feels like a conclusive kiss-off, rather that it's a ragtag collection of mediocre, b-side quality tracks. Nothing says "contractual obligation" quite like that except maybe a live album or a "greatest hits" comp. Unlike a lot of people I know, I fully admit to being a fan of Moneybrother's last proper full-length "To die alone" and was looking forward to this one. I didn't have sky-high expectations, but I really thought it would be better. Today's mp3, the lead track "Just another summer" is one of the few standouts. As usual, it's got Anders Wendin doing his best Springsteen impression with a bit of a Clash-style breakdown thrown in for good measure. It's fine, but it's nothing we haven't heard from him many times before. It's certainly not enough to convert the skeptical, much less a proper big summer single as I'm sure was intended. Maybe next time?
