Hederos & Hellberg

This is one of, if not the, best bands ever to have come out of Sweden (and the world). The sadness, the soul, the face-in-my-hands-crying, the absolute beauty.

Album: Together in the darkness
Song: No fun
Written by: The Stooges

Artist: Hederos & Hellberg
Album: Together in the darkness
Song: Concrete Jungle

...and I'm insanely proud of the fact that they are from Karlstad, Varmland. As am I.
I once saw Nymphet Noodlers live.

Tindersticks

This is one of the very few bands that....it's always the right time to put one of their albums on. It's very red wine and tears....cigarettes on black and white streets and all that, but above all very, very, very good.
