re: 1992

Today being Tuesday, we continue our ongoing series of "re:", as we look back at a designated year, and profile albums that could otherwise be considered noteworthy, at least in my book. And since I started the first entry of the day off with the domestic release of the Swedish band, The Knife's "Silent Shout"...thought I go Swedish today with another.

Back in the early 90's, Acid House Kings consisted of a trio. Singer/guitarist Niklas Angergård, his bassist brother Johan and guitarist Joakim Ödlund formed the Swedish twee-pop trio Acid House Kings in 1991. A year later, they released their first full length LP "Pop, Look & Listen!". That year was 1992.



The album is now virtually out of print...so good luck finding a copy, but if you do, its quite a gem to have.

It would be 5 years later that Julia Lannerheim would appear as first a guest vocalist and then join as a member of the Acid House Kings.

YouSend: Acid House Kings- "Say Yes" (for a limited time)

As some may already know, they are one of my favorites, as I've posted previous entries about them...and my recent entry is ovah here.
The band has definitely left a mark in the Swedish music scene...

Previous entry of "re:" ovah here.
