Niccokick
Awake from the dead, my dear best friend
Razzia Records/BOW Music
Niccokick are from Sweden, play fantastic angst ridden "lo-fi rock", and have previous to this full-length, released various eps, 7"s and a self made cd-r. This is a really good album and it contains plenty of excellent tunes, but it's also quite a disappointment, since too many of the songs feature on their other releases. It feels more as a best of disc than a new album. But if you've never heard Niccokick before, this album is a very good introduction and I think you should go out and get it (that is if you like your indie rock stuffed with catchy riffs and songs about not-feeling-too-old and drinking).
