Swedish twee only released on CD-r
Some time during the second part of last year
I came to chat (on soulseek) with a boy with a truly
amazing collection of music on his harddrive. But my
prejudices were playing dirty tricks with my mind.
Since his hard disc collection was so elaborate,
I thought, aah, great geezer my on age (gray-hairing,
30 years).
On the harddrive there were everything from
twee bands from 20 years ago, over really mature
adult american rock to really, really obscure swedish
80's punk bands and some of the latest releases from
small indie labels. I naturally told him I thought
he had a great collection.
It turned out to be a 18 year old girl in the small
swedish town of Alingsås. ("Pagis" on slsk)
After I'd been forgiven, she told me of a - now favorite
of mine - swedish twee band. The Second hand furniture.
They went to the same school and where friends.
I cannot thank her enough.
So, here comes one of their best songs:
Second-hand furniture - Alone out in the sea
Second-hand furniture's official homepage. In swedish only.
"Lyssna" means listen if you want to hear more of them!
Now I'll be gone (just when i got started alright!)
for some two weeks, going out on my old woodenboat.
See ya!
