Volvemos a fijarnos en otro grupo sueco, en esta ocasión hablamos de Ronderlin, grupo formado en la primavera de 1998 por Per Larsson, Mats Lundqvist, Kalle Grahm, Johan Lindwall, Styrbjorn Ekman y Tommy Dannefjord. Los dos primeros años los pasaron escribiendo canciones y apenas realizaron un par de actuaciones. Es ya en el año 2000 cuando graban su maqueta con 4 temas entre los que se encuentran "Reflected" o "Everything's Just Fine". Poco después la banda ficha por el sello Labrador , entrando en el estudio en el verano de 2001 para grabar su álbum [...]

(No Ratings Yet) Loading ... L'invasione del pop scandinavo è iniziata qualche anno fa e sembra inarrestabile. Sicuramente i tanti gruppi provenienti dall'Europa del Nord stanno dando del filo da torcere alle band Inglesi, forse un po' stanche e un po' troppo impegnate a copiarsi l'un l'altra (basti pensare alla contrapposizione sull'ultimo album di Interpol vs Editors... se non fossero così simili, perchè paragonarli?) La varietà di generi e di stili [...]
CAROLYN (overly cheerful) No, no, that's quite all right, dear. Your father and I were just discussing his day at work. (to Lester) Why don't you tell our daughter about it, [...]
ZIO (formerly known as Zero In On ) has released a new song called Soot . It will be the next single from their latest album Pillow Talk . The Swiss band has been touring through the USA this spring and probably added a couple of more followers to their fanbase. And right so! The alternative rock of ZIO is very very good, and should not only be heard by us Swiss lads. Check [...]
You've probably guessed by now that this blog is partial to the odd slice of Swedish indie pop. Bands from that neck of the woods generally come equipped with pantry sized sunny melodies and more often than not spring from the loins of the majestic Labrador label. Labrador released Ronderlin's debut 'Wave Another Day Goodbye' 5 years ago and although they have since moved on they retain the
Gothenburg, Sweden What a breath of fresh air! Ronderlin has really kicked it up a few notches on their latest. If you're impressed with the sounds of bands like Shout Out Louds or The Legends, I highly recommend picking up The Great Investigation from Ronderlin. It's out now from Tomt Recordings .

The new album The Great Investigation by Indie pop band Ronderlin is on constant repeat on the car stereo these days. I really, really want the album to be great, because several tracks from it are just ace (in case you don't know them already, just check out the two I've posted below). But why is it that bands that clearly are at their best when writing up-tempo pop tunes, suddenly have to go all quiet, boring and emotional? Unfortunately Ronderlin belongs to this category, so a few really uninteresting [...]
Finnish indie-rock-band Tinker has released 3 new demos, and all of them are worth an earful. It's amazing how easy it seems for them to create those catchy songs. I can only repeat what I've written before: in a perfect world, these guys would be huge! Check out the songs (and the older ones on the official homepage!), and visit them on MySpace. http://www.tinkerwashere.net/ http://myspace.com/tinkerband [...]
Die Zahl der Plattenlabel, die die Zeichen der Zeit erkennen und merken, dass die beste Art, eine Band zu promoten, darin besteht, kostenlose Downloads ihrer Songs zu ermöglichen, nimmt glücklicherweise immer weiter zu. Ein Label, dass diese Idee besonders vorbildlich vorantreibt, ist Parasol Records aus Illionois. Die Fülle der zur Verfügung gestellten Gratis-Songs ist fast schon erschlagend, und es kommen regelmäßig neue hinzu! Stilistisch ist so einiges dabei von Indiepop bis hin zu Indierock und Americana.

Parasol provides the first three at its free downloads site, while AOL's Spinner.com has the fourth. Both sites have lots, lots more for your perusal. Club 8 - What Shall We Do Next? mp3 Ronderlin - You Made Somebody Want You mp3 Viewfinder - I Wouldn't Go [...]
As promised by Chris in his post today , here are two more tracks by Swedish indie pop band Ronderlin . Both tracks are taken from the vinyl 7" released on Tomt Recordings in February last year. The single is not sold out, but nonetheless the label has made both tracks available for free. Aside is a wonderful up-tempo pop song that sounds the way I imagine Pet Shop Boys would sound, if they ever [...]
Some more good news in addition to yesterday's posting about Swedish label Labrador . The tracklist for the 4CD-Box can be downloaded here as a PDF-File. It really is a great compilation, and I think everyone who loves new Scandinavian pop-music should own this thing! Labrador is also offering four exclusive tracks from the sampler: Sambassadeur - Ice And [...]
