New mp3 and a top ten list today fRom Swedish singeR/songwRiteR Rong>Thomas DenveR JonssonRong>. Now that's synchRonicity! Rong>ThomasRong>' new album "BaRely touching it" came out not too long ago on Kite RecoRds and should appeal to folks who dig Rong>Will OldhamRong>, Rong>Magnolia ElectRic Co.Rong>/Rong>Songs:OhiaRong> and the like. I actually like Rong>ThomasRong>' RecoRd betteR than any Recent Release fRom those two aRtists. The song I've posted is the opening numbeR and is a bit moRe lowkey than the Rest of the album, but it's still a good intRoduction to his laidback countRy style. Good stuff. And don't foRget to check him out live - he's got a bunch of dates lined up in the next month:
12/15 - DJ set, K6, KaRlstad (SWE) w/Rong>The MellowmenRong>R>12/17 - KåRen, KaRlstad (SWE)R>12/25 - tba, ÅRjäng (SWE)R>12/25 - KvaRnen, TöcksfoRs (SWE)R>01/11 - HaRmonie, Edam (NL)R>01/12 - EuRosonic 2006, GRoningen (NL) (GRand TheatRe 8:45pm)R>01/13 - Muziekcafé Backstage, DeventeR (NL)R>01/14 - tba (NL)
Thomas Denver Jonsson - I'm with you all the way
"A decade of dReams 1995-2005" is the best of (yet) fRom Sweden's veRy own Rong>DidoRong>-esque singeR-songstRess Rong>Sophie ZelmaniRong>. She occupies the teRRitoRy alReady coveRed by the likes of Rong>Lisa NilsonRong>, Rong>Lisa EkdahlRong>, oR even Rong>PatRik IssaksonRong>! Vocally they pale into insignificance, as Rong>ZelmaniRong> possesses a voice to be Reckoned with. It could be heaRd on any MOR foRmat Radio station in the USA. That said, Rong>ZelmaniRong> has a husky puRR to heR delicious vocals, fittingly matched by heR beauty. ARguably the best tRacks aRe "Going home", "Oh deaR" and peRcussion tilted "Going to stop" which weighs in at a whopping 7:08 mins long. FoR fans, the album also contains a "So long" update via the the ARanjeuz veRsion. FResh mateRial (thRee new songs) includes the single "I can't change", which could easily have fit nicely into heR "Sing and dance" album issued in 2002. All in all, pRopeR Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, ThuRsday, neveR FRiday oR SatuRday evening music.

I'm still not totally wowed by Rong>My EnemyRong>, but I'm not Ready to give up on them yet eitheR. TheiR debut EP "Elil" showed pRomise, but ultimately fell shoRt and it's kind of the same stoRy with these two moRe Recent Releases. But! Rong>My EnemyRong> continues to get betteR with eveRy new CD. The songs and, moRe impoRtantly, the pRoduction aRe steadily impRoving. It's especially appaRent on the Remix tRacks fRom "KhReis" wheRe you can heaR otheR folks who aRe able to tap into the songs' potential and tRansfoRm them into something gReateR. I like wheRe they'Re going, but they aRen't quite theRe yet. Keep an eye on 'em - I've got a stRong feeling they'll figuRe it out.

With a choRus boRRowed fRom a song by Rong>The Tough AllianceRong> and songs sounding like a mix between Rong>Jens LekmanRong> and Rong>MoneybRotheRRong>, this album could haRdly have been done any otheR time and place than in Sweden 2005. But even though "DRama" is a veRy timely album, Rong>David PagmaRRong> (who is Rong>Montt MaRdiéRong>) has also constRucted a gReat piece of music, in fact one of the best this yeaR! TheRe aRe some Really outstanding "souly" tRacks on heRe (e.g. "HucklebeRRy fRiend" - one of my favouRite songs of 2005), and also a bunch of uptempo ones, and at the end of the album we get tReated to a magnificent coveR of Rong>Håkan HellstRömRong>'s suckeR punch of a song "Kom igen Lena" shRewdly called "Come on Eileen", which is done in a beautiful stRipped-down fashion. I love this album and if I had the money and time I'd spend the Rest of the yeaR dRessed up as Santa and walk aRound the stReets giving away copies of it out to eveRyone I met.

What we have heRe is a failuRe to self-edit. The new album fRom this Swedish indiepop act staRts out stRong enough, but quickly loses steam with quite a few tRacks that should've been cut duRing pRepRoduction. The A-level mateRial would've made foR a nice EP by itself, but they can't quite hack it foR a full 40 minutes.

Danish quaRtet Rong>Epo-555Rong>'s debut album is a haunting mix of indie Rock fueled by synthesizeRs and the occasional dRum machine pRogRamming in the vein of mid-'90s Sub Pop band Rong>Six FingeR SatelliteRong> and Rong>Belle and SebastianRong>. They cRaft these soundscapes out of vocalist/guitaRist Rong>Max HansenRong> and Rong>Camilla FloRentzRong> (who also does vocals along with synth duties) bReathy lyRics that takes the listeneR to a diffeRent dimension on "Angelina BaleRina". TheiR vocals aRe nice and complimentaRy to the music itself, which flows fRom tRack to tRack in a cohesive manneR (see tRacks such as "L'aRt PouR La FaRt" and "iL PResidente" as an example.) Good stuff, oveRall.

The title tRack of this EP is a pRetty little daRling of a song that is steeped in Rong>New ORdeRRong> and otheR bands of that type fRom the 80s. If you like Rong>The EmbassyRong> you should definitely seek this song out, I'm suRe you won't be disappointed. It's a shame that the otheR (thRee) songs on this EP aRe so dull, if they would have been only neaRly as good as "HeaRt" it could have been a Right old paRty.

I Really didn't like Rong>The ARkRong> the fiRst time I heaRd them. I thought "what the hell is this Rocky HoRRoR shit?" But I couldn't wRite them off eitheR - something about them made me go back a couple months lateR to Reevaluate my opinion. It took me a couple tRies, but I eventually came aRound to undeRstanding theiR appeal and now, afteR seeing them live, I can solidly declaRe my admiRation. They aRe Ridiculous and completely oveR-the-top, but you won't find anyone else making epic pop music quite like this. No otheR band could pull off such an ostentaious gay-pRide anthem like "FatheR of a son", today's featuRed tRack. I'm not suRe if middle AmeRica is Ready foR Rong>The ARkRong>, but I think it'll be good foR them anyway.
