Mando Diao - I ungdomen In 2011, Mando Diao vocalist Gustaf Norén was asked to set a poem by Swedish poet Gustaf Fröding to music on occasion of his death centennial. Encouraged by this experience, the band chose 9 more poems to arrange as Infruset, their first native language record. Fröding is one of Sweden's most celebrated poets, though most of his published poetry was written during or in approximation to stays at mental institutions. His alcoholism, believed schizophrenia, & relationship troubles are clearly byproducts of his extreme sensitivity, evidenced in his poetry. Recorded in a converted barn in just several [...]
Some music reaches us at just the right moment. It’s so curious that you may listen to a song and not have your attention taken and, in a twist of time, you’re there, listening to it again in a different situation and completely in love with it. That’s how “Desconocidos” got into my list of best albums of 2011. It’s the latest work of Quarto Negro , a Brazilian band formed by Eduardo Praça (vocals and guitar), Thiago Klein (piano) and Fabio Brazil (bass). It all started in 2008 - initially as a [...]

Back in late 2010, when Lana Del Rey was still relatively unknown and blond, she made what was possibly her first European TV appearance on Mandio Diao 's MTV Unplugged show. Backed by the Swedish rock band themselves, Lana gave an acoustic rendition of "Chet Baker" , an obscure 2007 b-side named after the jazz legend. The show was later released on CD/DVD, and footage of her segment has been floating around since, but I only managed to discover it a couple days ago. Her voice was a good fit for the jazz-tinged track, [...]

Swedish rockers Mando Diao, best known for party songs like this one , made a sweet Christmas track with strings, flute and high-pitched organ. It's about a family hating each other during the holidays, so this sure will get you in the right mood ;) Mando Diao - Christmas could have been good

Pour cette première découverte de la saison, nous partons à l’autre bout de la Suisse, puisque le groupe de cette semaine nous vient des Grisons . Son nom : And her name is Violet . J’arrête tout de suite nos auditeurs masculins qui sont déjà titillés et qui se demandent qui est cette Violet, est-ce qu’elle est jolie et j’en passe : C’est un piège. And her name is Violet est un duo entièrement masculin. Hannes Barfuss au chant, à la guitare, parfois au synthé et Carlo Caduff à [...]
Sweden delivers us Mando Diao – a second thing to be grateful for, alongside Swedish Fish.

First of all, I apologize for missing last week. I know there were many panties in a bunch, horses not withheld and beans that were not cooled. I apologize for the heartache, and I made a point of bringing you the best indie tracks from the past 2 weeks, so make sure you control yourself- this sabbath is gonna probably cause you to make a boner. A mishap that is. Anyway… First of all, I can't stop listening to "No Love" by the band Hooray For Earth. Which is a perfect band to kick off the sabbath with, [...]
