Kim Curly Band – So Long, King Desire (new album)

No Comments

Time to visit the record store. The second Kim Curly Band album So Long, King Desire will be released on 14th of september 2011 by Hilland records. There aren’t too many great Finnish americana bands, but Kim Curly Band definitely is one really great one. I’ve only heard the 30 sec samples on amazon site, but I’m already pretty excited about the album and I’m fairly sure that I’m going to love it. This tune called New York below was the first single. You’ll find the second single, Neil Young-ish Way Back From Home from their bandpage on Facebook. The debut album is also really really good.

Regina – Soita mulle

No Comments

I haven’t written about Regina for a really long time, but it’s not because I’ve stopped caring or anything like that. I just tend to overlook the well-known pop groups here and focus on the smaller bands that gain way too little attention elsewhere. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with the quality of the music. In fact, Regina’s new album Soita Mulle sounds insanely great. If I don’t even mention that such an amazing pop treat has been released a couple of days ago, I should just quit making “a finnish pop site” and start some damn country & western music blog. Soita Mulle is out now in Finland and Friendly Fire will release the album in USA on september 20.
