Elections, at heart, are popularity contests. So are music sales, especially pop music sales. By definition, "pop" is a genre with a large following; the term "pop" is derived from the word "popular." It is a crossover of musical styles - jazz, folk, classic rock - with catchy lyrics, vocals and harmonies. Bands that do it well have fervent followers. Few bands produce edgy pop music. However, that is what the band Ex Norwegian does for ten tracks on its new album titled House Music. House Music is technically Ex [...]

We take Movember in a totally different direction today with Miami quintet Ex Norwegian telling a tale of a Mustang driving moustachioed girl. The band spent the later half of 2009 and early 2010 recording this second album, "Sketch" which was self-produced and eventually self-released that summer. In 2011, their label, Dying Van Gogh records picked up the 10-track album, originally scheduled for release today (but now the 15th). The original closing powerpop anthem "Tired of Dancing" was replaced with this fine track, "Girl With The Moustache." Enjoy a nice dose of Moustache Beauty. [...]
