MP3: The Bear Quartet - Super confidence
I asked for more people to contribute to our weekly Bear Quartet posts and Viktor Ålander was the only guy to step forward. I asked him to share a bit about himself to go along with post and... nothing. All you get are his words and his song:
I got into BQ's music fairly late, and the first album I bought was "Ny våg". Hardly the easiest introduction to the band - though a catchy pop album compared to say... "Saturday night". The album as a whole is hit and miss, but the good easily outweighs the bad.
The song which really has stuck with me ever since is "Super confidence".
It's a strangely constructed song, with only two short verses stuck between long ominous passages of guitars and synthesizers. The second, Swedish verse always sends shivers down my spine. It might not be the most instantly gratifying Bear Quartet moment ever, but the song has amazing staying power and is still one of my favourites.
