André Holstad - Corporation

André Holstad, an NRK Urørt winner from a few years back, will be releasing a new album on later this year and here's the first sample: http://soundcloud.com/booking-26-1/corporation
Kinda reminds me of a Ricochets tune.

Norwegian act Rumble in Rhodos will be going into Athletic Sound Studio in Halden to begein recording a new album with producer Kai Andersen (Madrugada, Ricochets, Saint Thomas, etc.). Assuming all goes according to plan, expect an April 28 release via Black Balloon Records in Norway with an international release to follow soon thereafter. The band will tour Europe with fellow Norwegians Dominic starting in late March with homeland dates to follow in May.

My Midnight Creeps - Histamin
(MMC Records/EMI)

8

My Midnight Creeps are fronted by the dynamic duo of Robert Burås from Madrugada (here going by the name Bobby Cagehill) and Alex Kloster-Jensen from the Ricochets. That's a great deal of guitar power, and they put it to good use on their second record, which is a considerable improvement on their strong debut. They make no pretenses to originality. To the contrary, they offer a familiar take on swampy, bluesy, dark and heavy rock'n'roll. The old blues singers of the Deep South meet the British 60s, wind their way through 1970s Detroit and 1980s LA, and land in Norway, bringing some touches of Scandi guitar psychedelia with them. They swagger through songs about women, having the blues, and being wronged. It's big, it's bombastic, it's meant to be played loud, and it covers no new territory. But it's so very well done. The musicianship is stellar, and the band seems to be having such fun playing that it's hard not to feel good listening. Then there are passages in these songs - mostly instrumental - where they achieve that rare wall of surging atmosphere that transcends everything else and makes you stop whatever you're doing just to revel in it. Big bombastic rock'n'roll fun interspersed with moments of rock'n'roll perfection? Play it loud.

Norwegian rockers The Grand have posted their new single "Traveling bound" for listening on myspace: http://www.myspace.com/thegrandspace
Reminds me of the Ricochets or My Midnight Creeps, 'cept with a little more boogie to it.

My Midnight Creeps - Don't let 'em bring you down

Got a new track today from Norway's My Midnight Creeps and I'm handing it over to Nancy Baym to talk about it:

My Midnight Creeps is the side project of guitarists from Madrugada and The Ricochets, apparently formed as an outlet for all the rocking they suppress in those bands. They've got a Rolling Stones meet The Cramps and Gun Club in Detroit sound and an over-the-top dramatic sweep. This first single from their second record refines and amplifies what was best about their first. The song starts with almost 90 seconds of buildup worthy of a Hitchcock film - cinematic as all get out - but when it finally bursts into that heavy wall of full-out guitar bombast, it's undeniably affecting in the knock-you-over way that only guitar-heavy rock and roll melody can be. You know you're being manipulated, but there's no denying the raw lure of the sonic environments they build. If it were 5 minutes instead of 7, it'd be perfect.

The band's new album "Histamin" comes out on March 5.

MP3: My Midnight Creeps - Don't let 'em bring you down

Ricochets will go on indefinite hiatus once again following the show at Raumarock in Åndalsnes, Norway on August 4. Whether or not the band will return after said hiatus remains to be seen.
