The Bear Quartet – Lovers Goodbye
Mattias Alkberg
(singer of The Bear Quartet and solo project)
1. I enjoyed this documentary, it made me wanna tour endlessly and rock out with my cock out: http://www.vbs.tv/en-se/watch/
2. Young white Scandinavians, working in media, in tight clothes and over-sized glasses, listening to hip hop, going to parties, slumming and blogging about it. Examples are too many to link. Besides, I don’t wanna give the fuckers any more recognition than they already have.

1. My two favourite albums of 2010: The Bear Quartet – Monty Python and Patrik Backlund – Patrik Backlund is an arsonist.
2. I prefer focusing on the good stuff.
3. Something that I would recommend people to listen to is Anaugh Conda and Kork Kir. Two bands from my hometown, Östersund.

The other act is “Hörnan” and his First Love, Last rites. It just sounds beautiful, noisy and dreamy, and thick. Layers of distorted guitars and somewhere far back in the mix amazing melodies.
