...Mor Karbasi blossoms from internet rumour to new and exciting prospect in one highly-accomplished step A handful of well-received live performances have helped as well, but a test of this rich, passionate music thats drawn from the Jewish Ladino tradition of Spain is how to get it onto disc without losing its emotional power With her highly...

2008-04-10 16:17:00 by magnusk in Indie MP3 - Keeping C86 Alive!
Morðingjarnir (The Murderers) hail from Reykjavik, Iceland, and are like a breath of fresh air in the local scene, though there's by no means lack of interesting bands. They play punk rock with their tounges planted firmly in their cheeks, and their second album, Áfram Ísland! (Go Iceland!), hit the stores on March 13th. One reviewer...

Premature Evaluation: Peter Morén - The Last Tycoon

2008-03-14 17:45:49 by Stereogum in stereogum
...Morén's MySpace, he sounds a tad sad without Bjorn and John. He also sounds wordy. And like Wham! . And Robyn Hitchcock (especially Eye ). Recorded over two years, Morén's first solo album The Last Tycoon is an understated effort -- mostly the man alone with his guitar with some handclaps (ok, a ton), strings, vibes, synthesizers, piano,...

2008-03-11 08:15:00 by Jim in Quick, Before It Melts.
...Morén , on "Social Competence," the first offering from his solo album The Last Tycoon makes it hard to shake the shadow of his regular band. Peter Björn and John's Writer's Block pretty much had a lock on catchy pop songs until Leslie Feist returned, and it appears that Morén is set to reclaim the crown of indie pop with this highly...

SXSW: Peter Morén Performs At PASTE/Stereogum Party

2008-03-16 14:51:56 by Stereogum in stereogum
 
As previously mentioned , Peter Morén brought a blissful, mellow close to the opening day of our Volume party. Tunes from his prematurely enjoyed Last Tycoon sounded great live, especially with the addition of local strings players. (Probably cheaper than bringing them over from Sweden.) Here's "Tell Me In Time And "Reel To Real" (sans...

...Morén's apartment. Not entirely solo (sorry Bjorn and John), Peter's accompanied on drums by Tobias Fröberg, the Swedish songwriter who also produced prematurely dug Tycoon . And he looks like that beaded Jake Gyllenhaal more than he usually does. Or, right, Fred Armisen in "Iran So Far

2008-11-09 23:59:00 by The Pop Cop in The Pop Cop - on the beat of the Scottish indie music scene.
...Mor - you don't need us to tell you that there are few bands who can boast such a repertoire of smart alternative indie rock songs, or that Will Sheff is the kind of effortlessly engaging and charismatic frontman you can't take your eyes off There's a simple way of telling just how much this group can get under your skin. Most people would...
