8/11/2016     This Swedish group formed in 1995, focus on the genres of dream pop, synthpop, indie pop and shoegazing.  The genre shoegazing was coined by the British music press referring to bandmembers that would stand still doing performances, looking down. It is a subgenre of alternative rock that involves mostly indecipherable vocals along with lots of distortion and feedback.  

     They are up-and-coming and well worth a listen. In 2011 they were nominated for Album of the Year and Band of the Year at the Swedish Grammis.  Their album "Lesser Matters" was placed at #9 on the list of the 500 Best Albums of 2004 by NME magazine.
