Happy Face 29 Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 Oh, I guess Figurines rock. They're very good at least. Baby Woodrose rock in a 60s organ kinda way. Yeah they're very good, there's a lot of excellent music comming out of Scandanavia at the moment. The only Scandinavian music that springs to mind as any good for me is Dungen. I've not heard of most of the stuff you lot are going on about though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Face 29 Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 (edited) I got Oh you're so silent Jens when it was getting a load of praise, but it never did it for me. Yeah, tend to agree with you there. A few very good songs though. Checking back on my opinion of it at the time, it seems to contradict what I think now.... Jens Lekman - Oh You're So Silent Jens. Best album of '06 so far. A strangely upbeat melancholy melding of Beck style samples and acoustics; and Morrisey style lyricism. Lovely stuff. I Wonder why I never went back to it more after first listening to it. Might have to increase its footprint on my playlists.

David Kelly 1117 Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 Jens Lekman never did it for me when I first listened to it but I've listened to odd songs again recently and I am liking them a lot, I will have to give it another go. Off the top of my head, my favourite scandanavian bands currently are; I'm From Barcelona Sarena-Maneesh Love Is All The Figurines (Are the Envelopes from there as well?)

Yeah, I love listening to Yo La Tengo's And Then Nothing Turned Itself Inside Out when I'm driving late and I thought it might have a similar effect. Roads by Portishead is without doubt the best late night driving song though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Face 29 Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Just got hod of: Andrew Bird - Noble Beast Animal Collective - Merriweather Post Pavilion Antony And The Johnsons -The Crying Light Bon Iver - Blood Bank Could be a good start to 2009. PS - I wonder if albums will continue to be released in alphabetical order all year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PS - I wonder if albums will continue to be released in alphabetical order all year Ooh didn't even know about three of those and Andrew Bird is a personal favourite. Listened to Merriweather a few times and despite hearing that it's their most pop album which could see them getting mass appeal, I don't see it. Very similar to Strawberry Jam. Not that that's a bad thing. Will have to aquire the rest tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
