A few weeks ago I told you about the band Hello Confusion’s plans to release 11 singles during 11 weeks with the final one released on Christmas Eve. And today they started with the first one, the song “Roller Coaster”:

Hello Confusion is a band that I really like, and I have posted about them a couple of times before. It’s been a couple of years, though, since I’ve heard from them, so it was great to hear from them again and read about what they’re up to next.

First, this song and video, “London”, which they describe well themselves as a disco driven arena song with vibes from the eighties, lush guitars and strong melody. Obviously it was also used in Swedish television during a collage over the winners from the Olympic games.

Furthermore, they tell me that they will release one new song each week from October 15th to Christmas eve. 11 songs all in all. A fun and ambitious idea, that I will try to follow up on.

Hello Confusion, which I presented last year, has come out with some new material this autumn; the EP “Wastelands”, which was released in August. If you liked them before, I’m sure you won’t get disappointed with the new songs. They continue to deliver a catchy rock with good melodies; direct songs that are easy to absorb.

There are four good tracks on the EP, with a nice variation; from the dance-rock-tune “Everyone Is a Dancer” to the more grand “Shooting Star”, which grows into something which reminds me of Manic Street Preachers.

Here’s two tracks you can listen to. If you’d like to hear the entire EP “Wastelands”, you can visit Hello Confusion on Myspace.

“The band name itself reflects the twisted, fast moving world of the 21st century, often cold and harsh but then again so beautiful at times; intimidating but still fascinating.” That’s how the band Hello Confusion describes their name.

The band started out in the beginning of 2008 and has already produced an EP, “Into the daze and round the bend”, from which you can listen to two tracks below. They offer a modern rock with a nice drive and good melodies, and it sounds really promising for the future.
