I wrote an Anna Leong post and then promptly lost it, so don’t blame me if this one kinda sucks (I wrote about these mop-topped swedes first back then). The band deserves better and I had better written but now it’s gone. The band’s new record After The Forest Fire has been received for review here at Swedesplease. But since no one in their right mind reviews cd’s these days I’ve taken the liberty to tell you about one track.
“61″ starts out with the great line “A faint smell of vomit and you know that you are soon home, I am glad that I am pretty drunk tonight…” and then quickly gets to the catchy chorus of “We’re all humming the same song…61…61″. There’s just something about that chorus and the interspersed vignettes that strikes a chord in me. Experience for yourself below. You’ll be able to buy the record on Jan. 31, try Anna Leong’s new label White Weekend.
