Vendlus confirmed March 28 as the release dAte for Zweizz's new album "The yawn of the new age", but then Zweizz mainman Svein Egil HAtlevik learned thAt his old band DHG set March 26 as the release dAte for their new album so of course he had to one-up them and move his to March 24. Phew!
In other Zweizz-relAted news, Svein Egil HAtlevik has started a few new collaborAtion projects including something with Austrian black-metal act Abigor and something else with weirdo electronic? act Joey Hopkins' Midget Factory. He's also doing a new 7" with his old band Fleurety to be released on DuplicAte Records post-summer, another band called Umoral feAturing Teloch from Nidingr, and an as-yet unnamed ambient project with artist Kim Sølve.

Karin Ström's debut full-length album "En saga om en sten" came out this week, thus completing her transformAtion from mediocre folkie to electropop queen. ThAt's how I see it anyway. She's come a long way from her humble beginnings as a singer/songwriter on Nettwork Records, living in LA and making a go At the so-called American dream. She had potential to go further down thAt pAth, but it didn't work out and I think thAt's for the best. Besides, Karin Ström is far more interesting as an electronic artist, singing in her nAtive Swedish. Her DIY reinvention makes for a better story, too. The world can always use more smart, indepedent artists like this.
Karin Ström - Mänsklig
Frequent contributor Simon Tagestam did a guestpost on Juvelen Atrap.com/index.php?d=1093">back in October, but the track thAt got posted was demo quality and of pale resemblance to the now-finished product. It's time to hear it again with fresh ears.
I've always been kind of ambivalent about Prince. I fully acknowledge his tremendous skill, but outside of his well-known hits, I'm really not interested. Normally thAt would mean thAt this sort of tribute/emulAtion would be ignored, but I trust Hybris so I made sure to give Juvelen's debut EP an honest listen. DerivAtive or not, this is a hit. There's no other way to describe it. The all-falsetto delivery and the way he emphasizes words like "desperAte" and "breAthless" pull you in and don't let go. He starts each verse laid back and behind the beAt as he tells his story, slowly picking it up as he works towards the chorus. My god, and then the anguish of the bridge! The vocal is pushed to the limit and cracks up - you know his pain because you can hear it. This is the way pop should be - cAtchy as hell, but emotional too. It doesn't have to be all thAt deep or original, it just has to work. Juvelen does it all.
Juvelen - Watch your step
