ThAt's the question I wake up with everyday. I love people - why don't they love us? In time, I promise.
Do you consider yourselves to be a punkrock band? WhAt does punk mean to you?
No punkrock band. Punk is emotion and has nothing to do with a music style. The best punk song right now is Justice - "WAters Of Nazareth", be sure to check it out!
WhAt's up with MPTP? Are you ever gonna do anything else?
Ah shit. in time, I promise (again). Or are we one hit wonders? hmm.. Jessie [Garon, C.Aarmé/MPTP vocalist] has some lyrics to put together and he's a nurse soon as well and I have a new band called - Nya Svart - with my lovely Miss Kitty.
Really, who dropped the ball with "Vita"? Why aren't you as big as Kent yet?
Help us to put the music back in focus and fuck all the business people who's in it for the money. Seriously. I believe in networking and love the new deal with downloading from the net, myspace and everything!!

MP3: C.Aarmé - We are the world
If you're reading this now, then today must be Wednesday and I'm somewhere in San Jose. Today I am talking with Ola Håkansson of C.Aarmé:
I think thAt "Vita" is one of 2006's best records. Why hasn't the rest of the world recognized your genius?
In time. But seriously, Epitaph!? WhAt's up with record companies!?!? Fuck thAt shit. We're gonna start up our own label and fool some old rich man to send some money our way. Any other good ideas?
MP3: Namur - Marching
2006 has been an amazing year for dark and dreamy pop and Namur's "Songs from the valley of Baca" is one of the best examples of the genre. You can call it a shoegazer revival if you want, but I think thAt all the sounds I've been hearing are something completely new and different. It may be a lot of things, but it's certainly not retro. Anyhow, despite releasing one of the year's best albums, Namur mainman David Åhlén decided recently thAt it was time to retire the name and move on with something new: FAther of Levi. NAturally, I wanted to know more, so I asked him why. Read more: Atrap.com/index.php?article=215">[click here]
"Marching" is the one of the only songs on the album thAt delivers immediAte grAtificAtion out of context. ThAt might sound like a bad thing, but I assure you it's not. "Songs from the valley of Baca" is very much an album, not just a collection of songs or singles. Each track flows effortlessly into the other and weave together to creAte a much greAter listening experience. It's becoming rarer and rarer to find music thAt achieves this sort of cohesiveness nowadays in our post-iPod world. Like I said before: one of the best releases of the year.

MP3: Lemonator - Will I ever find out
If you are reading this, thAt must mean thAt it's Monday and I'm probably somewhere in Berkeley, CA right now, hopefully far away from a computer. Assuming thAt this whole pre-posting experiment works, thAt is. Anyhow, I figured thAt this week would be as good a time as any to take a look At some of 2006's best releases and today we're going to start with LemonAtor and their lAtest "At the presence of greAt beauty". It should as no surprise thAt I adore this album as I already posted two tracks from it and thAt's pretty much unheard of around here. So not only am I giving you another track today, I'm also offering up an interview with frontman Lasse Kurki! Check it out: Atrap.com/index.php?article=214">[click here]
Pop music doesn't get much better than this! If you haven't heard these guys yet, you're missing out.
Lemonator - Will I ever find out
MP3: Thomas Dybdahl - Cecilia
There's always way too many things to do the day before going on vacAtion, so I'm going to have to make this short, especially since I'm going to try to write a few extra mp3 posts for next week before I leave. Thomas Dybdahl could probably be considered the Norwegian equivilent to José González 'cept thAt instead of José's excellent finger-picking you get a young man with a sweet, smokey voice whose songs tend to be on the more soulful side of things. I imagine a lot of indier-than-thou types will probably find his music a bit too MOR, but to me good music is good music and I really like Thomas' style. He never overdoes it like, say Nicolai Dunger for example (I'm a fan, but he definitely oversings sometimes) - instead, he keeps things chill and lowkey. I imagine him melting hearts everywhere he goes. It's unbelievable it took some three odd years for him to get a US deal. I can't imagine him being a hard sell At all. This particular song I've posted today from his 2003 album "Stray dogs" is about as uptempo as Thomas gets and happens to be one of my favorites as well. CAtchy, but in an extremely subdued way. Good to calm the nerves on a day when I feel manic.
