The Soundtrack of Our Lives will be releasing the new album "Throw it into the universe" on April 18. Check out a live performance of the first single "Try again": http://web.tsool.net/?p=375
Hederos & Hellberg, the piano/vocals duo of Martin Hederos (The Soundtrack of Our Lives/Tonbruket) and Mattias Hellberg, will be getting back together for a tour this coming February in addition to releasing their 2003 farewell concert as a proper album. I can't remember if it was originally broadcast on P3 Live or what, but I do know that I have a quality bootleg of the show in my mp3 library and, yes, it is quite good.
A new episode of Klubbland is up today featuring Ebbot Lundberg of The Soundtrack of Our Lives performing with Trummor & Orgel. Highlights: a cover of "London dungeon" by The Misfits. Another bonus: a Union Carbide Productions cover. Check it: http://klubbland.se/2011/03/04/24-trummor-orgel-med-ebbot/
There's a new episode of Off the Record online featuring The Soundtrack of Our Lives performing three acoustic songs at Kafe Moskova in Helsinki, the bar owned by famed director Aki Kaurismäki: http://offtherecord.fi/tsool/
