Labrador news...
+ The Kiss
+ Humdrum
Another interesting Labrador album release coming up is the self-titled debut from Det Vackra Livet, which will be out on May 3. First single Viljan sounded remarkably (though not surprisingly) like The Mary Onettes and so does second output Askan. This obviously isn't a bad thing at all!

Yada, yada, yada...
Was in Roskilde Monday and during the train ride in the morning from Helsingoer I listened to 37 of the 69 Love Songs from the Magnetic Fields triple album of the same name. Don’t think I’ve ever listened to the entire album, but the quality of the songs I HAVE listened to is sick.
Last.fm scrobbling is just one of many new features at Shuffler.fm. Talk about a vast improvement!
J.A. recommends this stunning newbie by The Arctic Flow. The track combines indie pop and shoegaze in an almost perfect way.
Check this excellent Lissvik remix of Det Vackra Livet's Viljan. Found via the PSL blog, which definitely is worth keeping an eye on; Even if you don’t understand Swedish.

La bella vita...
Swedish duo Det Vackra Livet has premiered a video for their debut single Viljan. Read my thoughts on the track here.

From the pile...
Det Vackra Livet is the most recent band signed to Labrador and the duo consists of brothers Philip and Henrik Ekström of The Mary Onettes. So don’t be surprised if it sounds like something you’ve heard before, even if it is sung in Swedish. Positively meant btw., as the song has the typical pop charm of the brothers’ other band.

Ritual, the sophomore White Lies album, has leaked and somehow a copy has landed on my computer. But before IFPI and other morons start accusing me being the sole reason for the deterioration of the music industry, I will (of course) buy a CD when it’s released on Monday (because my wife says so!). So please don’t point your guns at me! Regarding the album, I know I’ve voiced my first impressions once too often, but following four listens Ritual certainly does not have the instant catchiness of the debut, where every track (more or less) could have been picked as a single. Ritual however, I expect will be a real grower and if this is business as usual I'm probably going to rate it much higher than the debut in a few months’ time. The video below previews a few album tracks, though I suspect most people interested in the band have found a copy of the album by now?
