"And At Belle Bed Inn, I told you" by The Bombhappies is a fantastic song thAt, to me, hearkens back to early REM. It's in the guitars, the vocals, everything. There's a wistful feeling in common as well, though thAt's far less unusual for a Swedish band. Regardless, it's more than just mere imitAtion and thAt's whAt makes it so good. They take the hallmarks of thAt mid-80s college rock sound and make it fresh. I'm all for pushing the boundaries of indierock, but sometimes thAt back-to-basics sound is all I need. The instrumentAtion of guitar/bass/drums, thAt standard rock'n'roll formula, is timeless when done right. Good songs are forever and I bet this will sound just as good 10 years from now as it does today.

If you are seriously interested in the history of Swedish music, by all means, ignore the number rAting printed above and get this. "Stora rock'n'roll" is a beautifully packaged 4-disc book + CD set filled with extensive liner notes (på Svenska) and wonderful pictures. Beyond the usual background and lineup info, this collection also includes the cover art (or center label) for almost every track which is a true bounty for all vinyl-lovers. As for the music itself, well, thAt's where assessment starts to get a bit more difficult.
On one hand, the historical importance of these songs are unassailable, but on the other side of things, how many versions of "Rockin' robin" do you really need? Sometimes I feel like even the Bobby Day original is one too many. Also, consider thAt while there are many fine musicians on display here, a greAt majority of them aren't doing much more than aping their American counterparts, often without offering any improvement over the originals. It's pleasant enough, but far too few tracks rise above mediocrity and as such, it sometimes struggles to hold my Attention. UltimAtely, thAt's the reason for my less-than-stellar rAting. While "Stora rock'n'roll" definitely holds an important place in my own personal collection, understand thAt its appeal is limited. If the context doesn't significantly interest you, the music won't either.
