Peter Ahlqvist of Burning Heart Records has started a new full-service record label called Panic & Action and has already recruited three bands to his roster: Chemical Vocation , Adept and Social Siberia . Working together with him is Eric Höjden from BHR act Kid Down and booking agent Andreas Skogmo , the winner of the 2006 Millencolin Music Prize for his DIY show promotion in Örebro with District 19. Look for new albums and tours with Chemical Vocation and Adept this fall, to [...]

"I'm not the same, the years have passed," Millencolin's singer and bassist Nikola Sarcevic proclaims on "Brand New Game," one of the better tracks on the band's seventh LP " Machine 15 " "It kind of scares me how it went so fast." And speed by the years did. Led by this Örebro, Sweden quartet, Swedish skate punk bands like No Fun at All, Satanic Surfers and Bombshell Rocks enjoyed a mid-1990s... "I'm not the same, the years have passed," Millencolin's singer and bassist Nikola Sarcevic [...]
Can there really be too many posts about Swedish artists? Nah. This one goes out to the best Swede- skate punk acts out there: Millencolin . They just released a new full length call Machine 15 on Epitaph and as you can see above the art is rad. After all these years (formed in 1992) the boys are still as on as ever with the same catchy choruses, fast tempos, slightly off English and pop punk gold that made me love the band back in 97 with For Monkeys . [...]
Millencolin has been making records for something like 15 years and while they aren't exactly the style or tone of this zine, I have been a huge fan for years. They have a new record coming out called Machine 15. Anyways, here is the video ... Youtubage (Please open the article to see the flash file or player.)

More Swedish music news! Mando Diao are turning a new leaf with their 4th album, "Never Seen the Light of Day" which will be released on October 24th. Instead of their usual indie-rock sound, the guys say their new songs are more acoustic and inspired by folkmusic. Interesting! Another Swedish band that are ready for a new album, are punk-rockers Millencolin , who are about to hit the studio at the end [...]
This isn't a political blog but just for the heck of it I thought I'd throw my two cents in on the democratic presidential debate tonight. And hey here's some music too! Dennis Kucinich - I am proud to call Denis Kucinich my myspace friend. I love Kucinich, I think he's by far the best candidate, or at least has the best ideas… maybe he's too liberal (and short?) [...]
I don't usually re-print press releases I get sent, but this one's worth it: August 7th, Secretly Canadian will release The Sojourner Boxset by Magnolia Electric Co. It is the accumulated work of thirteen musicians, five locations, four recording engineers, three filmmakers, two designers and one songwriter, including enough new material for three full lengths, one EP and one DVD. Nashville Moon was recorded by Steve Albini at his Electrical Audio studios in Chicago, Illinois and features the most frequent line up of Magnolia Electric Co. Black Ram was recorded by David Lowery [...]
While making his daily rounds, Dr. Pplist got no further than the middle of the alphabet. There he discovered that Chris over at the venerable Swiss blog, Music of the Moment, had apparently stolen his "Around the Blogosphere" theme and posted some really nice finds from the 'sphere. (Totally kidding, Chris, totally. You've been at this game far longer than the doctor and are a model for him, not
As seems to be happening more often as the weeks go by, this episode has absolutely no theme. These artists have nothing in common other than they made music in the current decade. But of course, in this instance it is a positively good thing. There's a wide spread of musical styles, everywhere on the globe that matters is represented and there's a mix of beginning, flourishing and dying bands. What more could one ask for? Grab a refreshingly smooth Vanilla Coke and you're life will be complete Banquet - Bloc Party [...]
The past couple of days have been extremely difficult for the music industry. It's long been determined that the music business can change faster than Britney's choice of which rehab center she'll occupy. However, the past 48 hours have dealt a pair of insufferable blows to the fine world of music - in particular to the fine genre of pop punk. Bands break-up and form everyday, comparable to the "real world" where people consistently die and give birth. True in both realms of life are the impacts of certain deaths; repercussions for the demise of [...]
Wie sehr das schwedische Label Burning Heart die letzten zehn Jahre meinen Musikgeschmack mit beeinflusst hat, habe ich gerade überrascht festgestellt. Von der Melodic-Punk-Phase, Schlenker zum Hardcore über Emo bis hin zum Soul und gefühlvollen Indiepop hat mich das Label die letzen Jahre mit einigen Lieblingsplatten beliefert und Wege zu neuen Genres gewiesen, die [...]
