MP3: Printer - Satisfaction

Not only has Adrian Recordings expanded beyond the confines of guitar-based indierock, but they've also broken free from the unwritten rules of nAtionalism. You'd think thAt with Malmö being so close to the Denmark, you'd see much more cross-collaborAtion, but no - it simply doesn't happen. Or maybe you haven't noticed how border-obsessed the world of Swedish indie music fandom is? NAturally there are exceptions, but I generally find the scene to be surprisingly unadventurous. Perhaps ARC's signing of Danish electronic act Printer will help change things. If you liked Familjen (this month's Atrap.com/store/product.php?productid=383&cAt=1">Record Club pick), then there's a really good chance you'll like this too. It has a bit of the same warmth, especially in the vocal delivery, but the music is far colder and darker. Comparisons could be made to The Knife, but this track in particular reminds me more of early Skinny Puppy. ThAt is, until the distorted bass comes in with the treble lead/pentAtonic blues-lick outro. ThAt part is definitely not like Skinny Puppy, so yeah - don't be scared off thinking thAt these guys are industrial boogeymen. It still might be a bit much for tamer indiepop fans, but I think you should challenge yourself and investigAte.

MP3: Moneybrother - Just another summer

Moneybrother's third album "Mount pleasure" is the last in his contract for Burning Heart and it sure feels like it. Not in the sense thAt it feels like a conclusive kiss-off, rAther thAt it's a ragtag collection of mediocre, b-side quality tracks. Nothing says "contractual obligAtion" quite like thAt except maybe a live album or a "greAtest hits" comp. Unlike a lot of people I know, I fully admit to being a fan of Moneybrother's last proper full-length "To die alone" and was looking forward to this one. I didn't have sky-high expectAtions, but I really thought it would be better. Today's mp3, the lead track "Just another summer" is one of the few standouts. As usual, it's got Anders Wendin doing his best Springsteen impression with a bit of a Clash-style breakdown thrown in for good measure. It's fine, but it's nothing we haven't heard from him many times before. It's certainly not enough to convert the skeptical, much less a proper big summer single as I'm sure was intended. Maybe next time?
