David Josephson started this Autumn with a single release of a song from his latest album “Drömmaskinen”. And I think that’s a good move since it’s a great, personal and varied pop album, that certainly deserves some more attention. The song is “När tiden har blivit vårt hem” which here comes in a new version with new mix.

The quartet Two Year Vacation from Göteborg started last Winter out of a longing to escape a cold and windy season. And the music feels that way too, like a sunny, early Springday wrapped in a cheerful and a bit dreamy indie pop. “Canned Heat” is the only single so far, but more songs are on their way soon.

Tkacuk
On his upcoming EP “Borders & Land” Tkacuk wages war agains the dark powers of prejudice and hate that are spreading all over Europe now. The title track here below is the first shot and turns out to be a bright, hopeful song about wiping away the illusions of nationalism. It’s easy to start singing along to this one.
Le Maine doesn’t hold back on anything in the song “Daughter of a King”. It’s a classic rock ballad with extra everything which explodes in a chorus of filmepic proportions. To support their dramatic music the band has created dark stories which their upcoming debut-EP “Arte” will tell us more about. The song has a beautiful melody which is unique enough, and catchy, but still I miss one thing in the song to make it reach all the way to give those enjoyable shivers in the middle of the most dramatic parts. It’s the lead vocals where they have chosen to embed it a bit too much in vocal harmonies and dubs, right there in the parts when you need it to be the strongest. It’s still a great track, though, no doubt about it, and it will be interesting to hear the EP where they are heading with this.
Anna-Lena Winter has released four albums before with the band Winter. Now she’s has collaborated with Håkan Svensson and Håkan Nyberg from Nationalteatern to create her first solo album “Raw”. And it really feels raw, with a sound that is to some extent inspired by Black Keys, but where we’ve also heard these kicked-speaker-membrane-distortion guitars from Pär Edwardsson before, who also happens to be one of the producers on this album, together with Håkan Svensson. It’s a quite varying and dynamic album with songs like these two catchy melodic tracks here below, to the heavy, glamrock-sounding “Everybody Dance” to the beautiful, minimalistic “Tell Me It’s a Lie” and a lot more to discover on this album that grows with each listen.
Finally a song with the duo Akaba, a duo consisting of Pineforest Crunch singer Åsa Carild and Tobias Ljungkvist from Reminder and Two Times the Trauma. They’re releasing the debut album on the 30:th of October, “The Rust Within”, and the first single from the album, “94”, is out now:
Dennis Camitz
Here’s a new single from the duo Eternal Death, Elin Berlin and Johan Angergård. It’s called “Fade” and is a melodically beautiful electropop song with some vibes from the eighties.
The producer duo KLoN!, which I wrote about in Spring, have released the song “Den dagen den sorgen”. This time Johanna Grane, hailing from Malmö, has added the vocals.
Yesterday Sveket released the second single from their upcoming album. “Den allvarsamma leken” is a song that follows in the same tracks the song “Hollywoodslut” laid out in Spring with a mix of electro and retroschlager.
Also Petter Lindhagen and his project Tired Tape Machine has released a second single, “Your Ghost”, aiming for the new album “Not Here”:
And here’s Dennis Camitz with his new single, the hymnlike “Paid My Dues” where he’s backed by a mighty gospel choir.
And finally the bluegrass band G2 who traveled to the US, toured there and also recorded a new album in Nashville with the help of the producer Erick Jaskowiak. Here’s the first taste of the album, “We Were Kings”:
Livboj
The duo Livboj, Jonny “Calzone” Klingvall and Jonas Borgström, released their debut EP “Opium Twist” last week. Four great indie-songs in Swedish. Here’s the title track:
Feivel, whom we’ve met before as Elin Hörberg in the Malmö band Skilla, has released her second single, “Friend”. The song is taken from the upcoming EP “Feivel”.
Here’s another great single from Chirping. “Ambitions”:
Here’s the debut single from the band Bigger Trees, “Whistleblow My Mind”, with two beautiful, ambient and a bit minimalistic songs.
Sudakistan is a quintet where most members have Southamerican roots. “Rabia” is their first single from their upcoming debut album, a song where they let loose their mix of latino rhythms and garage rock.
