Read all about it! (In swedish)

“hennes musik, när den är helt hennes egen, är stor. Den rymmer så många lager av inspiration och lekfullhet och gränslöshet att jag bara kan påminna mig en enda annan artist som jag intervjuat vid ett köksbord på Söder och som kunnat mäta sig. Det var Lykke Li. Och henne gick det ju får man väl säga ganska okej för.”

Korallreven – An Album By Korallreven
“One of the most beautiful records we’ve heard all year” (Gorilla vs Bear)
2011′s most interesting band?! Loved by M83 and Alexander Skarsgard. According to Hype Machine, Korallreven was the most blogged band in the world for two weeks this autumn. Hailed by the Washington Post, Spin, Pitchfork etc etc. Featured on all decent best of 2011 lists: i.e. Gorilla Vs. Bear (US.),
The Line of Best Fit (UK), Pig Stomach (ITA), Bulletin Board (ENG) and Nöjesguiden (SWE). Released in Scandinavia by Hybris, worldwide by the U.S. record label Acephalé (Pure X, Salem etc). Next? Watch out for the upcoming US live tour!

Jonathan Johansson – Klagomuren
“Du är verklig. Livet är på låtsas.” (Oroshjärta)
Sweden’s most delicious secret reached his big break with this autumn. Now loved by everyone – from the viewers of Swedish television show “Go Kväll” to readers of the hipsterzine Rodeo. Three Swedish Grammy nominations, a P3 Guld nomination for “Best pop”, Nordic Music Prize etc. And fifth best album of the year according to TT’s large collection of 90 critics’ best of the year lists. One of the most and best reviewed albums of the year and sold-out gigs all over Sweden.
The new single “Centrum” will be out early 2012 – probably the strongest single from the album Klagomuren. God only knows what will happen next, but get ready for a big tour in spring 2012.

Big Fox – Big Fox
“Charlotta has created a record that is neither flashy nor outright trendy, but one that shines through subtle experimentation and brutally honest and straightforward storytelling in her understated brand of gentle piano pop.” (Swede + Sour)
The debut album was released in Sweden 1st December. Embraced by both critics and listeners. Swedish radio added the first two singles “Cut You Out” and “Boring Ones” on heavy rotation – now more than 25 weeks and counting! The album was celebrated by Sonic, Sydsvenskan, Swede+Sour etc, and Big Fox played live in both TV4 Nyhetsmorgon and Swedish Radio and Television (Musikguide + Musikhjälpen). The album will be out in Europe this spring, followed by an European tour.

Azure Blue – Rule of Thirds
“It’s a hugely romantic record” (The Fader)
The debut solo album from the old popräv Tobias Isaksson has grown organically in a breathtaking pace.
It is now about to reach an international breakthrough. The album was licensed to the legendary indie label Matineé, and was just released in North America, distributed via Darla. In the Philippines, via Universal. The breakthrough single “The Catcher in The Rye” were featured on numerous blogs and the album was pre-released by Fader, exclusivly. Soon a video – directed by director Mattias Johansson (Familjen, The Sound of Arrows, Patrick Wolf, etc.) – will be out for the new single “Seasons”.

Monty – 1000 år senare
“This is what we call a P3-hit” (Germund Stenhag, Swedish National Radio, P3)
The difficult second album crashed into the swedish folkhem and has found fans from all segments, from all walks of life.
The mega single “Dina armar” rotated heavily on Swedish radio during the fall. New single out soon. Monty FTW!

Hell on Wheels – One Ros

“Though they may not be the new kids from the block, Hell on Wheels have the biggest indie hearts in the world.”
Sweden’s only rock stars came back in the spring of 2011. The album “One Ros” did not make it to the toplists or to any mayor radio station. Why? Because Hell on Wheels are still underground. But they are the force that slowly, but patiently, erodes the foundations of the mainstream culture.
On the final judgement day when the world as we know it is coming to an end, Hell on wheels will be the light in all the nothingness – glorious and divine. You’ll see. Listen to the album and humbly kneel.
