MP3: Caesars - (I'm gonna) Kick you out

Few things are nicer on a Friday morning than having the day's mp3 post already written. Thank you Nancy Baym!

Caesars (as they're known in the US) have gained a lot of notoriety recently for their ubiquity in ads, especially "Jerk it out"'s role as the invisible music playing in those dancing silhouettes' iPods, but it may come as news to some that they've been producing irresistible pop nuggets for years under multiple names including Caesar's Palace and The Twelve Caesars. Here's a number from their 1998 record "Youth is wasted on the young" that showcases the more classic garage elements of their sound, including an organ riff right out of ? and the mysterians' "96 Tears". The lyrics are cheerful Swedish cynicism at its best: "I'm gonna kick you out/let the sunshine in." If you're planning on dumping your not-so-loved one soon, put this song on repeat.

MP3: C.Aarmé - M.P.P.

C.Aarmé really upped the ante with their new album "Vita". Not only is it fiercer, more obnoxious, more potty-mouthed and far more irreverent, it's also catchier, more melodic and much more musically adept then their debut. I've already extensively discussed "We are the world" (possibly one of the greatest songs ever written) and the first single "Golden retreiver" was posted awhile ago myspace.com/caarme" target=_blank>at myspace, so here's the new song "m.P.P.". You more astute readers out there might find that acronym slightly familiar as it's awfully similar to m.P.TP, one of the many fine artists on m/store.php?item=195" target=_blank>"Reader's companion volume two". Well, there's a good reason for that, but I'll let you draw your own conclusions. Here's another secret: "Vita" is one of the best albums of 2006. Psst... spread the word.

I wasn't terribly impressed when I first heard their "Computer camp love" EP back in 2003, but it seems like their patience and persistence is starting to pay off.

Pitchfork reviews the US release of Ane Brun: media.com/record-reviews/b/brun_ane/temporary-dive.shtml" target=_blank>https://www.pitchforkmedia.com/record-reviews/b/brun_ane/temporary-dive.shtml
I'd say that Anna Ternheim is more fit to follow in José's footsteps than Ane, but that's mostly just splitting hairs. It's nice to see her get good press regardless. For the record, I much prefer her "Duets" album over "A temporary dive".
