Ida Maria has recorded an acoustic session for Napster Live featuring four tracks, including a cover of "I got erection" by fellow Norwegians Turbonegro . I'm reluctant to install the 3rd party software required to view it, but those of you who are inclined to peep it can go here: http://email.napster.com/a/hBI hEt9Aan4pgB7SDWXAZX7pbHB/naps2 2

This year's Norway Rock Festival was forever marred in the memories of all sorts of leather-wearing attendees this weekend when news broke that two people were found deceased on a bus nearby. According to a Norwegian police spokesperson, "We do not know exactly how they died, but we assume they suffocated on fumes while they were on the bus". All signs point to a still-to-be-confirmed carbon monoxide poisoning. Headliners for the event included Alice Cooper , Motorhead and Turbonegro . (mp3) Turbonegro - Turbonegro [...]
" You think they'll get this one? Think they'll get it? A little clue: check you calendar. Check your calendar on this one. Check your calendar, and then maybe you'll get the joke." - Tom, dropping some hints about his timely spin of "Taxman" "Oh, there's many more things I've done, but, you know, I figured I'd start with that." -- Leon Carbone, purging the guilt about a $20 paper route theft "Not even gonna say what it's a stain of, just trust me. It was gross." -- Tom, declining [...]
Good Monday to you... if such a thing existed... anyhoo, next on the list of bands is Scars On Broadway , but since they are a System Of A Down side project, and I've already told Serj Tankian to suck it, they can suck it too... and suck it hard. Moving on... Turbonegro Who they are: A bunch of Norwegian self-described deviants. What they sound like: Straight ahead Punk with a sick, twisted, disgusting, [...]
Tonight is the season finale of Lost and the last lost for 38 or so weeks. They are going with the 24 format but with only 16 episodes a season. This is both good and bad. The station we last left Charlie in last week was the Looking Glass Station. The symbol was a rabbit. Since this is my last Lost related post for 38 weeks enjoy the references. Song: Black Rabbit Artist: Turbo Negro Album: Ass Cobra Comments: The band is inappropriate as their name indicates. [...]
Eigentlich habe ich ja mit Gitarrenmusik schon mehr oder weniger abgeschlossen und erst recht mit dem immergleichen Rockgenödel von irgendwelchen Skandinaviern. Das letzte Turbonegro-Album war schon nicht ganz so meins und nach dem ersten Hören der neuen Promo dachte ich nicht, dass sich der Enthusiasmus früherer Tage noch einmal einstellen könnte. Nachdem ich allerdings gefragt wurde, ob ich denn ein Turbonegro-Interview machen wolle, hab ich erstmal nicht nein gesagt. Und was wurde das dann für ein Tag: Am Nachmittag ein sehr nettes Interview mit Paul Pot Pamparius geführt (demnächst bei laut.de ) und abends dann im Columbia [...]
Song: God's Zoo (These Times) Artist: Death Cult Album: Ghost Dance Comments: Joining Ian Astbury for this pre -Cult venture was guitarist Billy Duffy. This would form the nucleus that is (not was, now that they reunited again) The Cult. This still continues the goth sound they didn't truly shed until The Cult's Electric. Song: Prince of the Rodeo Artist: Turbonegro Album: Apocalypse Dudes Comments: This is definitely an acquired [...]
The Nordic countries of Sweden, Norway, Finland, Iceland, Denmark, and Iceland have sent many artists to entertain at previous SXSW festivals, but this year is especially good. This is a collection of all the Nordic bands and artists I could find appearing at SXSW. This is by no means all of them... although you surely can't quibble at forty-five free mp3s, can you? David and The Citizens (Sweden - pictured above) a heart and a hand and the love for a band big Chill let's not fall apart [...]
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 [...]
