Jeremiha Too much is never enough Dead Frog Records

Tue, 11 Apr 2006 00:00:00 -0700

Jeremiha's debut is a radio-friendly, stadium-ready collection of anthemic synth-pop reminiscent of Duran Duran in their heyday. The sound comes on strong and stays that way right through to the end. The mood never wavers, the singer's got a nice deep voice, and the music is melodic and catchy. I can imagine it blaring from speakers at swimming pools everywhere this summer. But lyrics like "all I want is your touch/it's too much/it's never enough" and "it feels like strangers when we kiss/there must be more to life than this" exemplify how little originality there is here. Churning out solid versions of familiar sounds has made rock stars out of plenty of bands before them, and maybe it'll work for them too. But if you like Swedish music on account of its off-kilter edge, steer clear.

Top 10s for 2004: Fredrik Muskos (Dead Frog Records)

Tue, 21 Dec 2004 00:00:00 -0800

Discoveries and reflections of 2004:

01. It amazing that most people just go with the flow when it comes to music, and buy music straight off the charts.

02. Independent music has got a bright future, thanks to those who are interested enough to look beyond the charts.

03. DIY has never been bigger in the music industry, and it's growing!

04. It's not all about numbers of records sold - equally important is the love of music and having fun along the way.

05. Good music = Revolution.

06. Despite all the flashy music and media sites out there, Content is still King.

07. The major labels are dying.

08. The Internet has changed the music industry more than the tape recorder.

09. The world is one market - A fact known to people for years. The industry has just woken up.

10. To all garage bands and talents out there - the future is yours!
