This one is also released on 12” vinyl.
This is a vinyl for the fans. You get one new massive track to blow your mind. One new exclusive track for this vinyl, that reminds you of times when the acoustic guitar was Gustaf’s best companion. And two of the classic The Fine Arts Showcase-tracks, that you just need on vinyl.
This is a vinyl for the newcomer. You get one track that gives you a hint of what you’re up to in the future. One track that makes you feel special. And two tracks that introduces you to the world of The Fine Arts Showcase.
After the well acclaimed “Radiola” in 2006 and the cover album “Sings Rough Bunnies” in 2007, The Fine Arts Showcase now returns with their Quadruple A side 12” EP ”Friday on my knees”. The Title track, which will also appear on the yet unnamed forthcoming album, is a claustrophobic love song that is reminiscent of early Dinosaur jr, Orange Juice and Sonic Youth. But it is also true that the echoes go even further than that. You can hear the roots back from NYC 1975 in the sweet twin guitars and distorted bass lines.
”Heaven to me” is an acoustic 3-minute wonder with just an organ and a guitar accompanying Gustaf´s trademark vocals.
”Modern Love” originally written by The Rough Bunnies and taken from the tribute album, is a song about a one night stand and one of the groups best songs, that goes for both The Fine Arts Showcase and The Rough Bunnies.
”Chemical Girl” from ”Radiola” is a hazy song about romantic deception brought on by chemical indulgence. The track has found its way to the Spanish cinemas via the film “8-Citas” and is as we speak, somewhat of a Mediterranean hit.
The Fine Arts Showcase is an eclectic rock band from Malmö, Sweden. Led by the visionary songsmith Gustaf Kjellvander and backed by Joachim Leksell, Dan Englund, Fabian Ris Lundblad and Mathias Oldén. In the spring of 2009 we will see their 4th album hit the longing shelves.
