In a few months, it's election time in Sweden. The Tidö parties are probably going to lose, which is the best thing for anyone. They're a pack of xenophobic power-hungry political parties that engage in power, disguising their desires as ideology.
Tomma Intet are a Swedish indie-rock collective. Imagine a Californian sect that've been forced to sing choral hymns and gorge themselves only on music by The Radio Dept. Here you are. This song is sweet and dreamy. Kind of like something that George Harrison would have made and added a prog drive.
The chorus goes like this:
Själlösa jävla parasiter
ni kan dra åt helvete
...which translates to something like this; translation by yours truly:
Wow! What a fresh breath of air. Triángulo de Amor Bizarro is a Galician band that's clearly into a lot of indie and alternative rock. I mean, their band name is 'Bizarre Love Triangle' in Spanish.
Just listen to the first two tracks: from the low-intensity-to-gothic-blow-up style of 'SMT en el Palacio Real' to the Alvvays-sounding indie-rock melodicisms of 'Diosas Adolescentes'.
Yep, the album even has strings (perhaps most strongly heard on the song 'Pat e trenca', a track that owes a lot to Nirvana's song 'Something in the Way').
This is lovely to listen to. There's variety in a kind of indie-rock circus way, meaning you get what you expect to get from listening to bands like The Las, The Smiths, Smashing Pumpkins, etc. but there's a lot of ideas floating around here. Buy the album!
