Lustans Lakejer tar med sig NoIcE på svettig Italodisco-klubb, så här låter resultatet. NoIcE - Nu i Natt (LL Remix) Släpps 22 juni på Icons Creating Evil Art
· By Mattias Forsgren
NoIcE slog igenom över en natt 1980 och blev ett av Sveriges populäraste band med hits som 'Du lever bara en gång', 'Inatt é hela staden vår' och 'En kväll i tunnelbanan'. Vad händer när de bjuder in ett annat färgstarkt band från den tiden att remixa den populära singeln 'Nu i natt' från tidigare i vår. Lustans Lakejer - gruppen som jagade upp halva Sverige med sina kläder, synthar och provokativa texter. Både NoIcE och Lustans Lakejer delar rötter som punkband i sena sjuttiotalets Sverige. Därefter utvecklades de på varsitt håll till ett par av Sveriges största band tidigt åttiotal. När båda banden nu råkat hamna på samma...

Sophomore album 'Hemma' coming later this year. Noah Deutschmann, lead singer of the band, explains their inspiration and creative process for the single, "Salt Couds" is based on a few pages of scribbles I wrote when visiting home last year. I realized I'd placed a lot of blame for me being the way I am on my surroundings, and that I had a lot of built up resentment because of it. That's what the song is about -...

Hannah Aldridge injects darkness into the vein of Americana with new full length album 'Dream of America'
· By Mattias Forsgren
Hannah Aldridge grew up on the muddy banks of Muscle Shoals—her birthright is music and Alabama. A reckoning between her coming-of-age in the South and a lifetime of trying to create an identity outside of it, her songs strike a delicate balance between rebellion and self-discovery. These two themes weave through Aldridge’s gifted storytelling, making for records that soothe like a lullaby and crack like a whip. For those raised in the Bible Belt, Aldridge’s music sounds like the voice of an old friend who understands. For those not in the know, her music is an initiation to the dark side of the...
