The (International) Noise Conspiracy made me like rock'n'roll - that involuntary leap of faith that makes you dumber than the band. Wonderful, and what a show

I dabble with T(I)NC and the Hellacopters for a rock n'roll fix

Let us not forget the greatest Swedish-American band ever, Cheap Trick.

I know Tom Petersson has two s's in his last name, but is he a direct import?

The current crop of Swede rock is very studied, caculated and so in awe of American rock mythology that it doesn't seem very genuine sometimes... Hives, Hellacopters, Flaming Sideburns, etc., seem so hell-bent on reproducing Detroit '68 that there's very little Swedishness to it... Soundtrack of our Lives seem a little better in that they break up the sound with all kinds of influences. Swedepop like the Cardigans and Komeda seems more Euro, and therefore more organic.
