Mumm-Ra: What Would Steve Do?
Just been watching Glastonbury on the TV and stumbled on Mumm-ra (great web site). The lead singer is a bit irritating but I can't help really liking the music. 'What would Steve do?' was the first track I heard. Great song. MummRa - Out Of The Question Mumm-Ra: What Would Steve Do? (Video)

Bedroom eyes

Jun 22, 2007, 10:01am Two lips, two lungs and one tongue
Bedroom eyes Ok.. I promise no more Swedish bands after this one.. well.. for a while anyhow. Bedroom eyes are one guy Jonas Jonsson, you guessed it, from Sweden. In his words 'striving to make pop songs that are short and simple compounds of bright melodies and heartfelt matters'. Sounds pretty good to me.

Shout out louds

Jun 22, 2007, 6:45am Two lips, two lungs and one tongue
Shout out louds Another Swedish band! There seems to be a pattern developing here. The Shout out louds have a real Cure vibe, it's probably just the vocal but there are some pretty Cure type rifs in there too. Good tunes tho. Some are a bit too pop for me but thats probably a Swedish thing. Shout out louds - The Comeback Shout out Louds - You Are Dreaming Shout out louds - Shut Your Eyes

Mixtapes & Cellmates

Jun 22, 2007, 4:58am Two lips, two lungs and one tongue
Mixtapes & Cellmates - Quiet
Found some stuff by Mixtapes & Cellmates a couple of months ago and loved it. It's a great mix of indie electronica with great lyrics. The latest news is that Robert Svensson from Mixtapes, has announced that he will release his debut solo album on the Swedish label Nomethod records . Should be well worth a listen.

Peter Bjorn & John

Jun 21, 2007, 8:58am Two lips, two lungs and one tongue
Peter Bjorn & John I Don't really know too much about these guys I listened to 'Young folks' and really liked it. Not sure if I should like it but it's one of those tunes. I then listened to 'Objects Of My Affection' and I was hooked. Swedish pop music... what next? Peter, Bjorn and John - Objects Of My Affection Peter Bjorn and John - Young Folks

Okkervil River

Jun 21, 2007, 8:58am Two lips, two lungs and one tongue
The War Criminal Rises And Speaks - Okkervil River
Here is a real favourite of mine Okkervil river . I thought I would post a couple of tracks because they are due to release a new album in August. In my humble opinion Okkervil river are one of the best bands of the last few years. 'Black sheep boy' and 'Down the river of golden dreams' are must have albums.

Final Fantasy

Jun 21, 2007, 6:56am Two lips, two lungs and one tongue
Final Fantasy I came across Final fantasy while surfing around Hype Machine . It's a project of master strings man Owen Pallett. I don't have any of his albums as yet but I'm working on it. Anyhow... here are a couple of tracks to give you an idea of what I'm talking about. I especialy like the Stars' cover 'Your ex-lover is dead' Final Fantasy - This is the dream of Win and Regine [...]

Ra ra riot

Jun 21, 2007, 6:32am Two lips, two lungs and one tongue
Ra ra riot Well... this it the first post so I'll start with a good one. Only came across Ra ra riot a couple of days ago. They have been around for a while but as far as I know they have only just released an EP which includes the excellent tracks Dying is Fine and Each Year (links below). I know their drummer has recently died but I do hope they continue to make music. Ra ra riot - Dying is Fine Ra ra riot - Each Year

Amandine

Aug 18, 2006, 11:49am Two lips, two lungs and one tongue
Amandine Have you heard Amandine ? The band was formed back in 2001 in a small town in Sweden called Sandviken. Originally playing under the name 'Wichita Linemen', the line-up included Olof Gidlöf on vocals, Andreas Wengelin (bass), John Andersson (piano/accordian) and Dan-Erik Westerlind (drums). Really nice smooth sound and great lyrics. Halo Blood & Marrow

What's in a name?

Aug 18, 2006, 6:49am Two lips, two lungs and one tongue
What's in a name? So, what's the blog name all about? Well, I've always been into loads of different genres of music and "Two Lips, Two Lungs, And One Tongue" by Canadian hardcore band Nomeansno is a song that has always stayed in my head. That's it, sorry it's not more exciting. Two Lips, Two Lungs, And One Tongue - Lyrics

Now for Shearwater

Aug 17, 2006, 9:46am Two lips, two lungs and one tongue
Now for Shearwater I can't go any further without mentioning Shearwater . Meiburg and Will Sheff, who began their collaboration as members of Okkervil River, founded Shearwater in 2001 as an outlet for quieter songs on which the two were working. I'll try to add some more Shearwater tunes when I find the links. One great song is 'Grey Lining'. Whipping Boy White Waves The Left Side This Confiscated House [...]

A king at night Ok, ok I admit it. It's me. Yes, I'm shamelessly promoting my own brand of acoustic noodlings A king at night . I thought you might like to hear the tunes I've been writing, recording and performing over the last couple of years. Let me know what you think.
