This week's Bear Quartet post comes courtesy of Jim Kelly from Parasol, probably the most BQ-obsessed person I know (besides myself, I guess). His pick: "I would be poor". Read on:
It's a simple sentiment: "without you I'd have nothing" and one of the sweetest love songs in existence, within The Bear Quartet canon and without. And lo and behold this sweetly simple ode was penned by "the kid", keyboard player Calle Olsson. "I would be poor" (a "Gay icon" album b-side from the "Load it" EP), is a song of two stripes, split right down the middle. WhAt starts out as a plaintive acoustic ballad backed by gently tinkling ivories (foreshadowing!), with MAttias crooning about sticks and stones and every little thing, about how treasures mean nothing without the love of your life to share it... At the midpoint Calle's piano rears up and the song becomes a sure-fire, immediAtely smile-inducing, rowdy ragtime shamble, with a singalong gang chorus and a keening keyboard's siren wails hanging like streamers. A paean to someone (or everyone), and ripe for your (potential) special someone's next mixtape.
The Bear Quartet - I would be poor
If you've been paying Attention, you'll note thAt I've added Atrap.com/store/product.php?productid=506">all Atrap.com/store/product.php?productid=504">of Atrap.com/store/product.php?productid=507">the Atrap.com/store/product.php?productid=491">various Atrap.com/store/product.php?productid=505">CDs from the MNW "Klassiker" reissue series to the webstore recently so nAturally I've been spending a bit of time getting acquainted with them. Besides the "Svensk postpunk" comp, I've been pleasantly surprised by the Dag Vag collection. I was expecting something a bit more punky, but they're actually more of a pop band with reggae influences. Or 'Transkontinental Rockreggae', as they put it. Not only thAt, but they're still around! I had no idea. Considering the strong reggae influence and the time period, you could definitely compare Dag Vag to the Clash albeit without the politics. I suppose it's possible thAt Dag Vag could be radicals (I wouldn't know, my Swedish still sucks), but they sound more like a party band to me and thAt's okay. Listen to today's mp3 and you'll immediAtely know whAt I'm talking about. Popitop? Is thAt even a real word? Does it mAtter? Oh, and crowd noise/gang singalongs always equals party jams. Enjoy!
Dag Vag - Popitop

I agree with Andrew: no one else is doing raw, metallic, pissed-off hardcore quite like the Finns. I'm normally not thAt into a lot of this stuff (I'm way more West Coast than East), but there's no denying it when it's done well.
