Yea, well I guess I can understand why you're not so much into them (Though i dig their music I do know that they're nothing so special or extraordinary. Just plain pop. But yea, I like it anyway. )

And yea, the singers voice...Well, it doesn't bother me and I actually do like it quite a bit, but then again, I do understand what you mean.

Yes you should do that. How long have you stayed in Sweden now? Come to Finland some day. We have some good music too.

Btw...what is Bob Dog like? (hund )

indierock/pop I guess... they're not that original or anything either, but I quite like them... got their Omslag: Martin Kann album (that's the subtitled, all their albums are actually self-titled)... allmusic relates them to Pavement, but I don't know, I don't really see a strinking resemblance... they got a Swedish grammy for strongest lyrics in 96 or 97... the singer's voice 's not easy either, but I don't mind it here... I've read that he sings in a sort of dialect, but it's a bit hard to hear that for me, although he does seem to pronounce "i" (ee in English) as "ei" or something like that... anyway "En Pratstund", "Upp, Upp, Upp, Ner" and "Förträngda Problem" amongst others are great songs...

Allrighty then, thanks. I could check them out.

Speaking of singers' voices...I'm just listening to Modest Mouse. That one was quite hard for me to get used to but now I actually like it very much. But I have to say that Isaac Brock has quite an extraordinary singing voice.

Well I don't like all of it but there's definitely some good stuff in their catalogue.

I haven't tried that much actually and my indiesnobby side thinks they're getting a bit too much praise, so I'm not trying anymore

Well I think you should put that side of yours aside atleast for a while and give MM a chance.

And Kent also...

I still am listening to Kent things, but I deleted the things I had by MM, to make space for other stuff... and I'm just not very interested in trying them out right now... might try again in a year or so...

"400 Slag" has been really heavy in my rotation lately. That's a fucking good band.
