Subject: Musikjournalen Pop *tonight*
*** IMPORTANT ***
Don't forget to listen to Musikjournalen Pop on Swedish National Radio
channel P3 _tonight_ (14/4) between 19.03 -> 21.00.
Why? Well, it's a good program for starters, but also because:
Shallow Soundwave is "demo of the week"!

Subject: Komeda cancel gig (again)
Well, since I started mailing news about Komeda I guess I have to go on
with it. I have received new news (??!) from their record company - NONS (I
know Erik gets these news too, so he can confirm that I am not the one
messing things up). The status is: Komeda DID go to the States (in five
different aeroplanes!!) and they DID play in LA. This, in turn, means that
they will NOT play in Uppsala tonight (all of this is probably too late to
tell you by now, but what the heck). (Source: NONS)
BTW, I am supposed to do a verbal presentation in my english course next
week. I was thinking of doing something about the development of the
situation for swedish indie record companies since the late 80s/early 90s,
when these companies were (to a large extent) overtaken by majors, until
today. If someone knows of articles that cover this topic - mail me at my
personal address.

Scandinavian Indie's Fidget Contest II
Text version
--------------------------------------
Mega Records & Fidget were so happy about the last contest held here on
Scandinavian Indie they wanted to run another one! And when it is for such
a great band, we just can't say no! Remembering the large number of animations
and huge graphics on the last contest page, which meant a lengthy download
time, we keep the web page version of the contest simple this time.
This also goes for the contest question!
Information
To answer the contest question, you may need to check out some of the
following pages. But even if you know the answer already, you might want
to check them out, as they are filled with Fidget information! And you
don't want to miss that, do you?!
* Fidget Homepage
http://www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip/2976/index.html
The band's official homepage made by a fan. It is filled with photos, sound
clips, information and whatnot. It is located in the US so it may take a
while to download, but keep trying - you'll succeed sooner or later. :-)
* Scandinavian Indie Fidget Interview/Article
http://www.lysator.liu.se/~chief/inter/fidgeint.html
This is the original interview made about a year ago, which later appeared
(though translated into swedish, heavily re-written and cut down to about
a third) in the Swedish pop music magazine number one: Sound Affects
Issue #32.
* Scandinavian Indie Reviews of all their records
http://www.lysator.liu.se/~chief/cdrev.html
Here you'll find reviews of all their singles and the album, written by the
Scandinavian Indie crew.
* Scandinavian Indie Gig Guides
http://www.lysator.liu.se/~chief/gigs.html
Always worth to check out if you want to stay informed about who's playing
where and when!
* Scandinavian Indie Digest Archive
http://www.lysator.liu.se/~chief/sid.html
Everything ever posted since 1994 to the Scandinavian Indie Mailing List!
* The last Scandinavian Indie Fidget contest
http://www.lysator.liu.se/~chief/confidge.html
Just in case you would like to see what you could win last time!
What you must do!
All you have to do is answer one single question. Yes, it is true. It is
that easy! If you already know the answer, it is of course extremely simple,
and if you don't, you'll probably find that it is just as easy if you check
out the links above. All answers received before May 7th, 1997 will be
placed in a hat, and Peter Ejheden from Mega Records will draw 10 (ten)
lucky winners from it. All winners will, as usual, be presented here on
the Scandinavian Indie Contest pages about ten days after the contest
closes. The winners are of course contacted through e-mail as well.
What you can win!
Ten winners will receive the limited edition Fidget Kit which contains
the following:
* A copy of their debut CD single "Semi-naked"!
* A copy of their second CD single "Stop Losing"!
* A signed copy of their debut CD "No Boogie Coming Your way"!
* A mini poster set (which really isn't "mini") with 6 different posters!
Good Luck!
Last date to send in your answers: May 7th, 1997

Subject: Scan-indie bands in Q
Hi all,
A couple more good reviews in Q, the biggest British music mag, for the
Scandinavian sound.
Grass-show get **** (excellent) for Something Smells Good in Stinkville
(they're not really indie, I know, but let's not quibble). "Matching The
Cardigans and Popsicle for irrepressible melody... one power pop hit after
another... homage paid to new wave-vintage Elvis Costello and XTC, 70s ELO
rather than 60s Beatles, and echoes of 70s American bubblegummers The
Raspberries and Rubinoos [I've never even heard of either of these -- what
is this reviewer on? - Mo]... one of the most entertaining Britpop, new
wave and Swedish pop albums you'll hear this year."
Gus Gus also get **** for Polydistortion (on 4AD over here). "The
now-generic smorgasbord of dance rhythms is treated with a relaxed
irreverence... probably more by accident and design, Gus Gus admirably
eschew Yankophile pretence in favour of a close cousin of the classic
ealy-80s Factory label sound... extended lounge-core insouciance, wooshing
ambience and serene, Bjorkian touches... in the place of the prankster
mentality that spoilt The Sugarcubes for many is, at last, a new
configuration for Icelandic pop."
There's also a full-page ad (ie extremely serious money) for Stina
Nordenstam's new album. Does this mean that this criminally under-rated
artist is going to get a good crack of the whip in Britain at last? Hope
so.
best

This is interesting, but not surprising. The band has spent more time
in the UK than in Sweden. I'm not even sure they have toured in Sweden,
or played at any festivals? Does anyone know if they have received any
good reviews for their album and singles? I can't remember if I have
seen one or not.

Ah, I saw this one in a record store today, but didn't have time to
listen to it. I've heard mixed things about it ("not as good as the
remixes on their promos/singles" to "the best thing I've heard"), so
I really want to listen to it before I make up my mind.
While I'm at it - I also saw the new Wagon album - did anyone buy it
yet? (needless to say, I didn't have the time to listen to it either)
I'd really be interested in hearing what people think of it, as their
earlier stuff had a touch of The Charlatans...

I really hope so - she's just brilliant IMHO. From what I can understand,
she's got somewhat of a cult status in the US, though maybe the UK scene
is more reluctant to "take her in" after she turned down The Chemical
Brothers - which I for one think was a bad move.

Subject: bob hund go english-speaking??
On yesterday's edition of the music news from P3's Musikjournalen,
they reported that bob hund are planning to form a new band, with the
same members apparently, to perform songs in English.
Can this be true? Is it really a good idea? And more importantly, do
they need help with the lyrics?
Robert, slightly amazed

This was in dagens nyheter a coupla days ago as well. Manager Marcus
Torncrantz told the reporter that they had received offers to go
international before, but nothing had really happened, so they decided to
do it by themselves. The tentative (?) band name was International bob. i
for one am being pessimistic until i hear anything. how could you EVER
replace Tomas Oberg's swedish accent? but, hey, who knows what will happen
if robert c helps out with the lyrics?...

Thats right. I have heard that they are planning to call them self
INTERNATIONAL BOB. I allso heard that they haven't written any songs to
thins project or are planing to go on a tour.
But i think the idea is great...

I have received news from the Cloudberry Jam mailing list. According to
these news the live chat with the band will be postponed for a week,
instead of this sunday it will take place the next sunday, the 27th of
april. The reason is that the members of the band has decided to take a
couple of days off in Japan.

Subject: Cry(-ing for more)
Last night Cry (from Bjarkne-Hoby?[they said so, at least]) performed one
of the loudest, tightest, wildest and most entertaining gigs I have seen at
Herrgarn in Linkoping. For those of you who don't know about this band,
their music can best be described as a wilder Soundtrack of Our Lives with
the roots in Stooges, MC5 and other bands like those. But the best
description is, of course, the title of their debut album: "Kamikaze Rockn
Roll". Heavy, tight and aggressive guitars made sure no-one's ear drums
staid conscious. The vocalist, L-P Andersson, was all over the place:
stage-diving, dancing through the audience, standing on the bass-drum,
standing on the loud-speakers or lying on the stage floor. There were two
victims during the gig: one guitar amplifier (which L-P accidentally poured
some beer in) and one bass guitar (which its owner decided to smash against
the floor before leaving the stage). Definitely a night to remember.

Cry's from Gothenburg, they seem to be a great live band, their album
is a bit uneven at time, but all in all it's reccomendable. I heard
their new 4-song CD is supposed to be pretty good.

Hi there
All i can say about E.F. is that they are playing in Ludvika at a festival
called Underground Art & Noise on the 10th of May. That's the only gig in
Sweden that they will play, i just talked to one of the guys at Art & Noise
and he confirmed that.

Hi!
I am just wondering if somebody has got hold a copy of this
compilation. It's really sad but we contributed with two of our bands
(La Buena Vida and Minema) but we have not seen a single copy. Hope
the Harry Lime guys send us the stuff soon before we take immmediate
legal actions...

Mats,

I have a copy of it. A quite uneven compilation, I would say. I certainly
understand why some of these bands haven't been able to obtain record
deals. But the spanish bands are certainly among the better ones (as is, of
course, The Wellmeant).

Heh, well, I did go to Herrgar'n but I never got to see the band
as I had friends visiting from out of town, and they weren't that
impressed with the noise coming from upstairs. :-/

It's really good to see that all the newspapers pick up this story,
though when all of them write different things about it, it starts
to look like a joke. Aftonbladet wrote for instance that they had
about 100 songs ready for the english releases. Some have called
them "Bob Dog" while others (including ZTV) say they're called
"International Bob". Another article said that "International Bob"
was a working name and that nothing was decided yet. I guess we'll
all know what the real deal is soon enough though.

Scandinavian Indie's Twigs Contest Results
Text version
--------------------------------------------
Twigs would like to thank everyone who participated in the contest and
say that selecting one winner was not an easy task! Therefor, the band
has decided on not one, but two winners! They have also added another
item to the list of prizes!
Which one of the two winners' title suggestions that will be used in
the end is still not decided. Both titles will perhaps be used for two
separate records, though whatever happens, you will know about it!
* The winners!
The first winner is: _Martina Ledin_ from Hagersten in Sweden
Title suggestion: _No more 24_
Twigs Comments:
FINN: Morten will turn 24 soon, and Per Steinar just turned 24, so this
suggestion must come from someone who can look into the future!!!!!!!
KATY: Much of the lyrics deal with the things many people find at the
end of their 20's. This is therefor a suitable title.
Second winner: _Mikko Riikonen_ from Kouvola in Finland
Title suggestion: _Super Melon_
Twigs Comments:
Say no more!!!!!!!
This is what the package you can expect to find in the mail in the very
near future contains:
* A copy of their brilliant debut album "Beast" on CD!
* The cool Twigs t-shirt in yellow with the "Twigs" logo on the front.
* A copy of their next and upcoming album (which You named)!
* PLUS! Their new and even cooler Twigs t-shirt!
Congratulations!
