Not a new track by any stretch, but I just crawled out of bed, hit play on the old AyeTunes, this came on...and I smiled. So a song that does that is worth sharing right? Don't let the title of the track, Funeral Face, put you off. Upbeat Swede Pop for a Sunday afternoon from Suburban Kids With Biblical Names ( SKWBN). Suburban Kids With Biblical Names - Funeral Face by Labrador Records

Hög stämning bland publiken när Labradorbandet gör en av sina första spelningar på länge, om inte den första? Vi siete persi l'ultimo concerto del 2010 dei Suburban Kids With Biblical Names , nonostante l'altra sera Gimmieindie lo abbia trasmesso in diretta streaming? Qui lo potete riascoltare tutto in comodo mp3 di buona qualità. Per quel che si può capire così (ma anche molti commenti in diretta su Twitter lo confermavano) la band era assolutamente in forma e sono state molte le novità in scaletta, tra cui anche una canzone in svedese. Intanto sul canale [...]

This would have been a really helpful post if I had written it yesterday, when I should've. In that tiny window of physical incapacitation I have managed to fail to inform you about such bands as Mount Kimbie and The Brothers Grimm, Alastair Roberts, eagleowl, The Wee Rogue and The Douglas Firs. By such narrow margins are great blogs built and once-great blogs judged and found wanting. There are excuses, though. This is Song by fucking Toad of course, so there are always excuses, but an Interminable List of Feeble Excuses for Underachievement, by Toad just [...]

"David Rappaport trumpet" There you go. Suburban Kids With Biblical Names - Trumpets & Violins mp3 Action Biker - TV Star mp3 (continuing the Swedish theme)
You guys I just basically creamed myself listening to Chad Valley AKA Hugo Manuel's new track "Up & Down" for the first time this weekend. So I'm pleased to bring you the his remix of Foals' "Spanish Sahara" today. While I liked the original, I never found much use for it and the previous remix offerings were [Read Full Post...]

It is summer. It does not require much of brain for you to realize that. In fact, it requires more intelligence to find your way to our website so if it being summer is news to you, you are probably here by mistake. If you are not and I just wasted five seconds of your time I apologize. However, my nonsense is not the only thing I will apologize for though. I would also like to apologize for the upkeep of this blog the last two days and for that reason I will be rewarding you with two songs. Now, [...]
This is seriously a great great remix. Solid. Tropicalish. Percussive. Just bloody good! Yeah, so that sounds really cool Miks...but what remix are you talking about? (Yeah, I ask myself questions...and then I answer them! Ohnoididn't!!) It's the Suburban Kids With Biblical Names remix of Pallers' pretty massive track The Kiss. Download it. Play it [...]

After a weeklong (or is it two?) heatwave (and in Athens that means hot as HELL) down here at the bottom of Europe, brains are starting to slow down, moves limited and thoughts blurred. In retrospect I probably should have replaced the broken remote control (and only way to use it) of my AC last summer... We might be sweaty, tired and a little weary, but we've still got some great new stuff for you on this Friday afternoon. Two from Sweden, and two others that could easily be but aren't [...]

Pretty soon it will happen, the sun will go murder the snow. Funeral Face by Suburban Kids with Biblical Names
The moody new single "The Kiss" by Swedish duo Pallers gets turned into a an acoustic tropical down pour by another Swedish duo Suburban Kids With Biblical Names. Remarkably it sounds like a brand new song. MP3: "The Kiss (Suburban Kids With Biblical Names Remix)" MySpace: http://www.myspace.com/pallers Twitter: http://twitter.com/pallers Purchase: Humdrum Label: Labrador

Pretty psyched to be premiering the first new material by Suburban Kids With Biblical Names in over a year. Yes, it may be classed as a remix, but this has SKWBN's trademark ramshackle genre-shifting pop strewn all over it. We featured the original version of 'The Kiss' a week or two ago ( SOTD #61 in fact ), but the two versions are different enough in their execution to more than justify it. The Pallers original is a slow-burning, sun-drenched electro workout - whilst SKWBN's re-imagining is an altogether different beast. After a brief intro using the [...]

Ack! Another new weekly thing! I don't know why I torture myself in putting up weekly recurring posts even though I rarely post them up on time. But this one you'll love (I hope!). Though it may not seem so, we are actually an Indie Music Database (hence the db search section at the top). As I work towards getting our database beefed up, I encourage you to browse through the many artists on the site by this weekly album post. If you guys are anything like me, album covers always pique my interest whether or not I know the [...]
Hella - Biblical Violence Nachdem wir schonmal kurz auf eine Geschichte aus dem Alten Testament zu sprechen gekommen sind, geht unsere kleine Bibelstunde nun munter weiter. Wir befinden uns nämlich gerade in der Zeit der Entstehung jener Schriften, die später als das "Alte Testament" zusammengefasst werden sollten, wobei die darin erzählten Geschichten zum Teil schon deutlich früher spielten. Dabei fällt auf, dass der Titel unseres Songs des Tages - Biblical Violence - gut gewählt ist, denn Gott geht im Alten Testament etwa so [...]

Ahh, hipster hate - the true landmark of hipster-ism. Personally, I don't really get that whole thing about hating on sub-cultures of cultures...or whatever you might call it. Also, as a self ascribed self-facilitating media node, I withhold judgement only until after Dan Ashcroft writes about it in Sugar Ape. Forgive me, it's a Monday. Here now is your recap - "You aren't allowed to say that you're better. You aren't allowed to say that cos you're the hipster type" [...]

Sambassadeur From: Gothenburg, Sweden Devil readers with long memories may recall me waxing lyrical about a snappy little ditty from Pelle Carlsberg 'I Love You You Imbecile' . In fact I loved it so much it made the top 10 tracks of 2007. Well the track is still available as a free download courtesy of the brilliant Swedish label, the self proclaimed but actually quite accurate world's finest purveyor of pop music, Labrador Records. Which is a rather convoluted and [...]

I'm not going into semantics here on what defines a geek (or geek vs. a nerd for that matter) . Everyone knows what a geek is, and frankly, geek chic is still in. Not surprising, since everyone is going techy. You have to have at least some basic technical knowledge to maneuver the ins and out of the modern society and juggle duties between email, twitter, and your many many iPhone apps. Since everyone belongs to the Geek Generation now, I dedicate my list to the continued rise of geek chic. And since every song in the world is a [...]

So, after a lot of procrastination and seeing a LOT of other lists, I finally took up the courage to start sharing my list with you guys. It's always a lot of work, but in the end very fulfilling. First start with my young talents list. Last year, I predicted a bright future for Mumford and Sons, and I turned out to be a visionary man (The year before Bon Iver was my number 1). I must admit that I'm not that sure about this year's artists or this year's number one. there aren't any artists that will [...]
Alright, it's the end of the year so time for all the bloggers to start making their lists to recap the year. I've decided I won't make my list with the intention to find the best album, song, or whatever. I never thought that was fair to the bands. I can't really [...]
Las neuronas no funcionan mucho los días viernes. Por eso, siempre terminamos jugando estupideces creando tópicos interesantes con los miembros del staff por nuestra plataforma preferida, Tuirer . A raíz del estupendo disco homónimo de The Pains of Being Pure at Heart , nuestro trendig topic del día fue el que titula esta entrada. Y en una rápida encuesta, hicimos un breve listado de bandas buenas (y otras muy malas) que tienen nombres más que interesantes. The Pains of Being Pure at Heart [...]
