    Long Gone Before Daylight must be one of the most under-rated albums of all time. It is harmonic and a must for any collection. Honest and beautiful.

    Agreed very underrated, a kind of sad alt-country vibe to it. Much different (and much better) than Gran Turismo, their only other album that I'm familiar with.

    Favourite track

    Great band and a great album.

    Got pidgeonholed as Swede pop lightweights, but a listen to any of their albums would show otherwise. Good musicians, ear for a tune, well produced and the sweetest voice going over the top. Lovely stuff. Lagerberg got some lovely, natural drum sounds on alot of their songs too.
    And Nina is gorgeous. Totally gorgeous :)

    I prefered their early Britpop stuff stuff like rise and shine and Carnival. then they went all serious and it wasn't as much fun.

    Became Britpop by association I suppose but I don't know if they're Swedish take on jazz inflected pop and Black Sabbath covers is really in the Britpop template. I love the both the early and later stuff. And Nina. Did I mention that ;)
