Svee-den! (Part I: Kirurg)

Yes, my goodness. This little Scandinavian country sure seems to have some kind of musical force that needs to be reckoned with. Stockholm Syndrome, Yo La: I'm finally starting to understand it.

In fact, this abundance makes me want to start a little chain of posts called: The Sweden Sessions. Not to say that this will necessarily continue, but to begin with a most recent discovery as of late:

Kirurg



These lads are from Stholm, and their basement tech-vision is like a well splattered paint experiment. 'Party Machine' bulldozes with a slew of high school dance convictions that could cut through the rhetoric of a pep rally. The rainbow synths are in accord with all the ironic proclamations, all in the name of hyper-pubescent kids perculating into turbo-prophets in the land of adolescence.

Everyone is celebrating at the punch bowl:

"the rabbits are so cute,
and the rabbits are so sweet,
oh yes the rabbits are so cute,
they are so sweet,
they are so cute, they
the rabbits are so cute,
the rabbits are cute
[synthetic giggle; giggle]"

I feel this could be a cult infatuation, a la AiH. Just listen.
