die zeit fliegt. von meinem zivi-entlassungsgeld kaufe ich mir ein flugticket über new york nach santiago de chile und bereise fast zwei monate lang nord- und südamerika. kaum zurück bin ich ziemlich pleite und bald schon mitten im studentenleben... in chile hatte ich mir ein paar alben gekauft - man mag es kaum glauben, aber es gab so etwas wie eine chilenische indieszene, und ein paar sachen davon liefen sogar auf mtv, unter anderem los bunkers und glup .

This self-titled EP by David & The Citizens may have preceded Until The Sadness Is Gone only by a few short months, but the debut extended play holds definite traces of an earlier, less mature group. One would think the short amount of time would leave little room change—yet the songs found encased here vary greatly from each other, and many from the long play that followed. "Graycoated Morning" was a highlight off Until The Sadness Is Gone and, in fact, changed little if at all from [...]
![David & The Citizens: Until The Sadness Is Gone [Album Review]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/1822986_lg.jpg)
It appears this little album by David & The Citizens was originally released in 2003 under the BMG Music Publishing Scandinavia label and was licensed to Friendly Fire via Adrian Recordings in Sweden. It is good to know the history of an album—the roads it has traveled to reach its current destination here in my hands. Listening to Until the Sadness is Gone , it is apparent why the album was released here in the states. It's pretty good. While it probably won't hit mainstream, it definitely has the potential to stick in [...]

Sara Culler feels urgent in what she do. She resides there somewhere between sparkling lofi electronica and acoustic music with a lot of variation. There is a nice tension in her music and her voice maybe is the main instrument to create this feeling. It's emotional and sometimes she breaks out in outbursts that remind me about Sinead O'Connor , which catch my attention even more. Sara has released a number of EP:s before, and she is now working on a split EP together with her husband David Fridlund ( David & the [...]
Some tracks are wonderful, but still somehow they don't appear in my posts, for some reason or another. Sometimes they're the only song by that artist that I know, sometimes they don't fit in the theme I want to bring up, or... Well, whatever reason kept them out, this post is a good reason for them to be heard. So enjoy : Heart it races (mp3) - Architecture In Helsinki [...]

David Fridlund is officially putting an end to David & the Citizens : http://davidfridlund.webblogg. se/2008/august/david-the-citiz ens-forever.html Look for new material to be issued under his given name in the near future, I believe a split 7" with his wife Sara Culler is coming this fall via Fashion Police.

First things first--the coffee beans worked like a dream. I didn't have any nasty caffeine withdrawal symptoms, plus they were a treat to eat, so thank you again Mr. Fil! So my friend asked me if my trip was fun, and I said, Well, fun isn't the first word I'd use to describe it. Worthwhile, challenging, gratifying--these words all apply, but fun? Not so much. Not that I didn't enjoy myself. I did. Especially in those moments when I looked around and truly realized that [...]
There haven't been many posts here for a couple of reasons, or more, but the one which actually saddens me is the fact that I haven't heard anything new which has remotely excited me. I've even found myself listening to songs from bands that roamed the earth years ago, decades ago . This isn't typical of me at all, I'm always seeking something new, a new favourite song, or artist, and when I find something which I like I often share it with Sixeyes readers, hoping against hope that that one little post by little old me will start [...]
I've been a bit of a sloth-blogger lately so I only just found David and the Citizens new EP I Saw My Reflection And I Didn't Recognize Myself. The EP was posted for free at the band's website on David's birthday (a bit of a reverse birthday present I guess). The EP consists of 4 rough energetic piano heavy songs. The zip also comes with lyrics, pictures and note from David. The best reverse birthday present I've ever gotten. MP3: David and the Citizens- With Every New Day Get the whole [...]
You don't get more indie than Swedish musician David Fridlund . I'm not sure what he's doing right now to support himself, but it could very easily be something as tiring as delivering the mail, working all night in a bakery, or driving a taxi. This is a talented guy and in a perfect world he, and every artist like him, would be able to live well by making music, but it's not a perfect world, is it? So, that's why we have to do a little something to make it a tiny bit better, [...]
>> Friendly Fire Records brings news that Swedish indie pop luminaries David & The Citizens have returned with a free four-song digital EP entitled I Saw My Reflection And I Didn't Recognize MySelf . The set -- self-released about a month ago in tandem with fronter David Fridlund 's birthday -- contains four piano-anchored winners whose strongest tracks are the dark, cinematic ballad "Anything" and the opener "With Every New Day." Both tracks are certainly worth a lot more than free, but who are we to refuse the largesse of the prolific Mr. Fridlund? The former [...]

I guess it's about time to take down the banner promoting The Schallgrenzen Festival , as it took place this weekend. Judging from the reports and photos I guess it was quite a successful event. Originally I planned to participated, but I simply couldn't make it fit in the already hectic schedule for December ( Peter ; I told you November would have been better!). With the weekend in hindsight I'm certainly glad I made that decision, as I've been feeling really awful since Friday morning and also had to leave work early yesterday to go home [...]
It's this blog's third birthday today, so drinks are on me! :) Three years of blogging... to be honest, I never thought I'd make it this long. We all know that there are waaay to many blogs out there, and I often thought why in the world should anyone need one more. But I kept going, and in time, the baby grew and demanded more and more attention. More than once I thought about giving up because it was just getting too big and time-consuming (especially with a full-time job and friends and family to entertain!), but in [...]
