when i read the sticker on this album--"swedish folk/pop/rock - a little Postal Service, a little Pavement, a LOT of fun!"--i had to give it a listen. i'm not sure how well they live up to the comparisons, but it certainly is fun. #3, put out by chicago's mintyfresh label, sounds just like two guys messing around and having fun with overdubs. the vocals--lead and background--resemble jens lekman, and the lyrics are often sort of stream-of-consciousness. here is "parakit." i really enjoy the hallelujahs in this song, suggesting something sacred about the subject matter of his hometown.
