Para una banda puede ser muy fácil o difícil sobrevivir a la partida de un integrante, lo que por supuesto depende de la importancia de la persona que se ha ido. No es lo mismo reclutar a otro callado baterista para que sólo aporte el ritmo a una canción, que levantar los pedazos del desastre que dejó la salida de tu vocalista principal. A The Concretes la partida de su cantante, Victoria Bergsman, les alteró tanto la vida, que no sólo produjeron un disco torpe e incómodo llamado Hey Trouble [...]

If the main focal point of your group has changed and you're not wanting to be stuck in a situation where future product is always unfairly being compared to what came before, the best bet is to either change the name of the group entirely or at least wildly reinvent your sound to help separate the two eras. When original frontwoman Victoria Bergsman departed Swedish indie pop eight-piece The Concretes in 2006 (to be replaced in lead singing duties by then-drummer Lisa Milberg), the band understandably opted not to do the former, but, perhaps foolishly, also [...]

A short mix but some exceptionally choice tracks this week. I'll let you pick out which ones you think they are: 1. Salteens - Last Train From London A nice slice of Mod pop smashed with a Burt Bacharach-esque horn arrangement. 2. Baron Bane - Orchids Speaking of a retro feel, this sounds like a remixed track from a 702s film soundtrack. Delightful. 3. The Concretes - All Day By the [...]

Filed under: Concerts and Tours , News , New Music , Exclusive Lead singers and drummers tend to have very different personality types, and while it's not unheard of for musicians to succeed in both roles -- take a bow, Phil Collins and Levon Helm -- it certainly is rare. Lisa Milberg knew the odds were against her, but in 2006, following the departure of Victoria Bergsman, she traded her drumsticks for a microphone and took over [...]
Now that the Fun Fun Fun Fest has come and gone, one could argue the 2010 festival season is official over. Upset? Depressed? Relieved? A combination of the three?

We got new singles from Kanye West, Ducktails, Tennis, and Acid House Kings, plus remixes featuring Gorillaz, Holy Fuck, and Mark Ronson.

I don't know if it's because of Internet information overload, or just because I'm getting older, but I'm finding it harder to get into new bands than I used to. New bands used to be my favorite part of doing my radio show, but now I look at a blog page full of new bands to check out, and I feel that same pang of pre-exhaustion I get when I see three baskets full of laundry to fold. So it's always a relief to see new music come along from artists I've loved in the past, especially if [...]

Filed under: News , New Music , Exclusive Sweden is famous for two wildly different styles of music: death metal and indie pop. Although the Stockholm-based Concretes play the latter, singer Lisa Milberg doesn't much care for the corollary genre descriptor often foisted on the band. "When people said we were making twee music, I could never hear that myself," Milberg tells Spinner. "I will never be able to understand what we sound like in other people's [...]
