a Swedesplease facelift.



I recently did a new banner for Swedesplease, a favorite blog here at the argyle academy. They focus on Swedish pop, indie, electronica, etc and they are one of the few blogs I'm sure to check out daily. Who knew there was good Swedish music other than Ace of Base? (click the banner above to see the banner in action)

Who are some of my favorite Swedish bands? Easy.

1. The Concretes (well, until this happened)
2. Sondre Lerche
3. Dungen
4. The Sounds (guilty pleasure)
5. Shout out Louds
6. And, is it possible not to love these guys:

(I'm sure I'll add to this list after I think about it a bit more).

Wow, thanks for introducing that blog! I love Swedish music! :) My favorite Swedish band is Kent! And I would add The Knife up there somewhere.

I hate to sound like a total a-hole, but I think Sondre Lerche is Norwegian.

Oh, wow. That DOES make you sound like an Awesomemusicfan Hole. And you're right, I guess he is from Norway. Other than the knife, it seems like I'm leaving some bands off my list. Any thoughts?
