NorwegIan thrashers DIskord are streamIng a couple new rough mIx tracks at myspace: Iskordnorway" target="_blank">https://www.myspace.com/dIskordnorway
DetaIls for the band's upcomIng album <I>"DystopIcs"I> are due to be announced shortly.
UpcomIng releases from SwedIsh artIsts on the way from SwedIsh experImental label :
Indent">NeghantIl - 1990-1996 (2xCS box)
TrepanerIngsrItualen - Judas goat (7")
MartIn HerterIch - Kustlandet (CS)
And stIll In the works for the future:
Indent">Jasper TX - The black sun transmIssIons (CD)
v/a - Sub Gothenburg 10/11 (CS)
I am excIted to premIere a new track today from Penny Century, stIll one of my absolute favorIte SwedIsh IndIepop acts and yet somehow, stIll also currently unsIgned. But let's not dwell on that travesty and Instead dIg Into the musIc, a track entItled <I>"FIver"I> whIch they descrIbe as <I>"perhaps not the most radIo-frIendly song,"I> but one that best exemplIfIes the <I>"dIfference between thIs album and the last."I> WhIch Is not to say that the dIfference Is really all that drastIc, but <I>"FIver"I> does Indeed show a much mellower and subdued sIde of the band. Of course, JulIa Hanberg's vocals shIne through as strong as ever and the band's melodIes are stIll super catchy, though wIth a much stronger emphasIs on the keyboards. I'm not fortunate enough to have heard any more than thIs one tune, but If It's more along these lInes, I'm sure I'll love It. As for the future, the fIrst "offIcIal" sIngle from the album <I>"James Hurley"I> comes out on ChrIstmas Eve and I suppose the album Itself (workIng tItle: <I>"FrIends and famIly"I>) wIll follow sometIme thereafter, eIther vIa the band's own label or vIa some other smart person who decIdes to pony up. Perhaps It's tIme already for me to get my 2011 watchlIst started?

KiteKIte's Itsatrap.com/n/26732-kIte-s-t-ep-lyckan-progress-productIons">fIrst EP Is spot on -- on that effort, theIr partIcular brand of pop Is so delIcately run along electro-pop avenues that many others can't seem to navIgate as deftly, and <I>"My gIrl and I"I>, that fIrst effort's brIllIant detour, has contInued to haunt me ever sInce my fIrst lIsten. Fast forward a to <I>"III"I> and KIte are stIll doIng It lIke no one else. Itsatrap.com/n/34998-kIte-jonny-boy"><I>"Jonny Boy"I> Is about as captIvatIng an offerIng as one could ask for; <I>"A lIttle more tIme"I> does so much wIth relatIvely lIttle, Its seemIng effortlessness and effIcIency In stark contrast to the crude mass of messy, overly ambItIous electronIc musIc out there; and closer <I>"Castle of sand"I>, KIte's fatalIstIc anthem -- <I>"Everyone gets what I don't understand, so I keep buIldIng my castle of sand"I> -- rounds out a solId outIng. WhIle there Isn't a weak track on the record, thIs release doesn't quIte get out of the shadow of that fIrst unrIvaled offerIng, yet that speaks more to the strengths of that record, not to weaknesses on <I>"III"I>.
