I think the main problem is that it's quite hard to sing some musical styles
in finnish, just because of the nature of the language (lot's of
consonants)... also, in english you can sing a lot of stupid lyrics without
it really sounding stupid, but in finnish it would sound really corny... and
a lot of people have really high self-criticism in their writing because of
some bands that have excellent writers, and that's why they tend not to sing
in finnish.

At least it seems, that (in this case) finnish bands are judged in
another way than the standards (that means english and so on, and music
out of this hot countries, where most of germans for example spend their
holidays ...), because, best-known-finnish bands here, are ... may be :
Leningrad Cowboys
Elakelaiset
Waltari
Jimi Tenor
That's it, I think ... so maybe Tenor fits up-to-date here, right now,
Waltari came up with the "Crossover"-Wave, but Cowboys and Elakelaiset
are somewhat out of rating them ...
So, Suomalaiset, it seems, if you wanna have success in fxxxing old
germany, you either where sharp-pointed shoes and hair or you enter the
stage naked ... ?! Hmm ...

Mh, I've never had the chance to see Bjork live, so here it is, or what?
Skanderborg? Near Aarhus, right? So, any Danes here that can tell us
more about this very festival ? It would be accessable by land from me,
and not much, mentioned on Scan-Indie, are!

The thing is, singing in English is as cool as anything here. So is
Italian and Spanish and French, but not Finnish or Polish or Dutch.
If the British can be convinced it's cool to buy records in Finnish,
you be they'll do it. Hell, they go and see opera in Italian, don't
they? Watch subtitled French films? Buy Stereolab records?
<<
That's probably a tribute to you being more cosmopolitan and open-minded
than us... in this respect at least! At least with Stereolab most English
people have a vague chance of understanding some of it, as we have to do at
least four years of French at school. But anything else, forget it. The
number of people here who could understand as much as a word of a song sung
in Finnish (or Swedish come to that) is going to be vanishingly small --
and not including me alas.

Subject: From Playground, Regarding Teenage Fanclub
There were a discussion regarding Teenage Fanclub playing at Playground,
Gothenburg. We tried to get T.F to Playground, but we failed. We will,
hopefully, have them at Playground later this spring. No promise, though
we're trying.
Check out our website:

Was she ever slated (?) to play Roskilde? I never saw her name in
their lists - not even on the "rumour" lists!

Just thought I should mention that two members from Kent were
interviewed on the Finnish top-40 chart show on FTV yesterday.
And yes, in finnish. I didn't understand a word though - did
anyone see it (who also understood what they said)?

I've got a friend in Oxford. and if that didn't astound you, she's learning
finnish, and she likes running around singing "joo joo, sut kylla
tunnetaa... oot niin kaveria, kaveria"
I mean 'cmon, just when i thought nerdy indie-pop had turned into poop,
Karrkiautomaatti releases their new single "Seikkailuun"... if there are two
singles a good human must own, let them be Bob Hund's "Ett Fall & En
Losning" and Karkkiautomaatti's "Seikkailuun". i mean, even the hardest
black-wearing Merzbow fan can't stop from smiling when hearing the
rock-a-rollah on this thing.
timo, who thinks the world would be a better place if everybody would own
atleast one slab of vinyl or laser disc containing the flat-out guitaring of
Roy Montgomery.

Subject: Scan-Indie lecture disc & Radio Khartoum Holidays
Dear lists,
21 people from North America & Europe have signed up to be on the mailing
chain for the disc I compiled for my little Scan-indie lecture last week.
I'll drop the thing in the mail today. A separate message with addresses
and instructions has been sent to everyone who signed up.
As to myself, I'm about to sign off all the mailing lists that I'm on, as I
will be in Europe for the next 2 months. Sorry to miss the hordes of pop
kids who will be descending on the Gray Area for Spring Break.
Hopefully any basic Radio Khartoum business will be handled by my friend
Jennifer in my absence. mailto:ahammer3@ix.netcom.com
But no promises. Except that I will be back on May 19th and will make sure
anything that didn't get taken care of then.
Summer at RK headquarters should finally see the release of the first
volume in our fake soundtrack series, which will feature (on the first
disc) tracks by Chocolate Barry, Seashells (Sweden), Bizarre (Estonia),
Essiar, and Christine (France). The RK vaults are stacked with material
for future volumes of this project. Merricks, Caramel, Watoo Watoo,
Gypsophile, Spring, Le Mans, El Joven Bryan, Chesty Morgan, Danny Manners &
David Longdon, and Louis Philippe, just to name a few...
And the rest of 1998 is looking very French: The mini-album by Watoo Watoo
should be finished shortly after my return, and later in the year there
should be more minis from Essiar and Gypsophile.
Hopefully I'll be able to check my e-mail now and then from the road, but
just in case anything important comes up, I've set up temporary account:
rkhartoum@hotmail.com
...though I really prefer to get stuff at xander@sirius.com
Until we meet again,
Alexander

Subject: mostly Scandinavian punk rock
Another month and yet another bunch of cool new Swedish punk rock releases.
all worth checking out!
Alien 8 - Never a Moment (7"ep) (Beluga) #(Released 14th March)#
This is the first release for Alien 8, but I'm sure it's not their last.
Swedish skate punk rockers trashing out 4 great tracks, not unlike Nofx /
Bad Religion. Recorded in Sunlight Studio in Stockholm, with Tomas
Skogsberg, famous for his brilliant Hellacopters recordings.
################################################
The PeepShows - Longstocking Babe (7") (Speed Demons 1000, 01)
This is the first record for Speed demons, a sub label to Frank records I
think. Peepshows pump out some great tunes here, that all Hellacopter's
fans will love.
################################################
Puffball vs The PeepShows - Split (7"ep) (Speed Demons 1000, 02) #(Just
Released)#
Puffball is one of the hardest and fastest growing bands in Sweden. This is
a must for all you punters who are into the Swedish scene at he moment,
great record.
################################################
The Hives vs The Pricks - Split (7"ep) (Hard On 02) #(Just Released)#
This is what Burning Heart say about The Hives:
The Hives are young, bold and great looking. Besides this they also present
some of the most innovative and adventourus punk this side of the Dead
Kennedy's. Mix the rock'n'rolling of New Bomb Turks/Rocket From The Crypt
with the energy of Operation Ivy and the guitar riffings of Dead Kennedy's
and you are close. Their debut album "Barely legal" is a milestone of
frenetic savage punk'n'roll by well-behaved teenagers gone mad!. Live, the
autopilot is never on either, and The Hives rocks like there's no tomorrow.
Hail, hail The Hives......
################################################
King of the Commandos - Instro Solidarity 97 (7"ep) (Ucu-001) #(Released
14th March)#
4 fast Instrrrro songs with attack, action-noise and punk from Sweden
################################################
The Idyls - The Sonic Boing! (7"ep) (Ken-005) #(Released 14th March)#
Swedish noise mungers trashing out yet another fine ep, preorders have been
swarming in after all the Swedish radio air play. Great art work sleeve,
not unlike the Sonics!
################################################
Henry Fiats Open Sore - Satans Boy (7") (Ken-004)
Wow, it's back again, after getting a whole page in one of Swedens national
papers, (Puls) this 7" became a sought after collectors item in Sweden,
reissue of only a few hundred. (same cover)
Number 1 single on Grunnen rocks for 1997!!!!!!!! This band also appeared
on The Swedish Sins Album (one of the best tracks on the comp).
################################################
Thanks for your time
