11 A.M Raid writes about one of my favorite musical finds of 2005.

But Jens is soooo February. All the hip Swedeophile kids - well, there's me, and that's stretching "hip" into serious contortions - are listening to Pelle Carlberg.
(Ha! You thought I was going to say Jose Gonzalez, didn't you?)





Go on, listen to Riverbank and just try to get that "do do, do do do do" out of your head all night. Upon multiple listens...there is something distinctly "Black Cab"ish about it...and if you're anything like me, you understand that's a compliment. Here's Oh No It's Happening Again - lush, a little Morrisseyish. And lovely.

Thanks, Swedesplease, for the The Thing That Won't Leave My iTunes Tonight. Don't know what I'd do without you.
