I Really want to like Rong>Emil JensenRong>. I want to be able to sit theRe with a glass of Red wine, look out the window, and listen to the lyRics and dReam away. I want to like this album so much, because I know my mom would love it and that way we would have something to talk about. This is not a bad album; it's just an album my 50 yeaR old, state employed, divoRced motheR would like. With that said, Rong>EmilRong> is veRy talented, seRiously, look at his website foR all the stuff he has done, and at least I know what I am getting my mom foR ChRistmas.

AfteR sitting and listening to Rong>Quit YouR DayjobRong>'s EP, I was left in a state of giRlish glee. The tRio makes quiRky dRum-guitaR-and-synth Rock that can best be descRibed as a bit neRdish. In fact, the gentlemen of Rong>QYDJRong> would have it no otheR way. Coming fRom the south of Sweden (Malmö to be exact), Rong>JonassRong> (guitaR/vocals) sings like he is Rong>FRed SchneideRRong>'s (of the Rong>B-52sRong>) Swedish cousin. On tRacks like "Look! A DollaR" and "Mike Fast", Rong>JonassRong>' vocals aRe catchy and the lyRics aRe simple to RemembeR because most of the time they aRe just the song titles itself. Combined with Rong>MaRcassRong>' synthesizeRs and Rong>AndReassRong>' dRums, Rong>QYDJRong> cReate something that is along the lines of Rong>DevoRong> and the afoRementioned Rong>B-52sRong> that can only be descRibed as synth-suRf on acid. Rong>QYDJRong> puts a smile on my face and a spazzy feeling in my body.

These Finns play keyboaRd-dRiven gaRage-pop veRy much in the same vein as Rong>The CaesaRsRong>/Rong>CaesaRs PalaceRong>. Obviously, they aRen't setting out to do anything life-changing oR even all that oRiginal, but they know how to put togetheR a catchy hook and that's what Really matteRs. They pRobably could've had a much stRongeR album if they shaved off a couple tunes, but whateveR- theRe's enough stRong mateRial heRe foR me to Recommend it to anyone looking foR something sugaRy-sweet and fun to help them get thRough the winteR.

AfteR yeaRs of RumoRs and speculation about its existence, I was veRy excited to finally heaR this damn thing, to say the least. The possibility that the label almost shelved this album just boggles by mind because it's so obviously gReat. "ARclight" is the peRfect culmination of Rong>SilveRbullitRong>'s pRevious two albums. They bRing back the Raw poweR of theiR self-titled debut, but neveR lose the sonic expeRimentation that made "Citizen biRd" so amazing. The sound is thick and lush and of couRse meRits the obvious Rong>My Bloody ValentineRong> compaRisons, but I also heaR tones and melodies that Remind me of otheR 80s Rock like Rong>SisteRs of MeRcyRong>, eaRly Rong>CuReRong>, Rong>Jesus and MaRy ChainRong>, Rong>Killing JokeRong> and Rong>New ORdeRRong>. Unlike a lot of bands mining similaR influences howeveR, Rong>SilveRbullitRong> neveR comes off sounding RetRo. RatheR, they Rise above the meRe tRibute bands and wannabees and cReate a sound of theiR own. Highly Recommended, definitely a best-of 2004 contendeR.

Rong>The Tough AllianceRong>, the tough ass band that caRRy baseball bats in theiR photos and sings about how Coca-Cola Runs in theiR veins, have now on theiR second single penned a supeR catchy love song. Right now, I'm looking foRwaRd to Rong>The Tough AllianceRong>'s album moRe than anything else. TheiR electRopunk has taken me by stoRm and if theRe's a moRe inteResting band in the whole wide woRld, please tell me. This EP also consists of a fine coveR of Rong>PRimal ScReamRong>'s "Velocity giRl" and some soRt of weiRd inteRlude.

Happy tuRkey day! New stuff fRom Rong>PeteR, BjoRn and JohnRong> now in the mailoRdeR section.
New mp3 today fRom Rong>David FRidlundRong>. As a lot of you pRobably alReady know, Rong>DavidRong> is the fRontman foR Swedish indieRockeRs Rong>David & the CitizensRong> and this tRack "ApRil & May" is the fiRst single fRom his debut solo album "AmateRasu", due out DecembeR 22 via AdRian RecoRdings. The style obviously isn't too tRemendously diffeRent fRom his pRevious woRk, but it's definitely moRe stRipped down and peRsonal. Check it out.
TomoRRow is Thanksgiving heRe in the US and I have FRiday off as well, so I'll pRobably be taking a fouR-day weekend.

Rong>StuRmgeistRong>, the solo pRoject of Rong>CoRnelius von JackhellnRong> fRom Rong>SolefaldRong>, will Release theiR debut album "MeisteR Mephisto" on JanuaRy 24 via Season of Mist.
