    Suburban Kids with Biblical Names in 2009 produce their music with chaotic playfulness. Each song usually goes through a large number of completely different versions and re-makes, perhaps ranging from slow country to uptempo afro pop, before the band is pleased and the song is finished. It’s definitely not a time efficient way of working. But, it does seem to make wonders for the final result.

    Label: Labrador

    After two highly successful singles (both stayed at the Swedish charts for a long time) Suburban Kids with Biblical Names deliver this year’s most eagerly awaited Swedish debut. #3 is twelve playful, catchy and highly addictive songs.. They may sing about the pointlessness of life, but they’re leaving us with a feeling that happiness is an option. Suburban Kids with Biblical Names promised to turn ”all the dance floors into a burnings inferno of Ba-ba-ba” with their first single ”Rent a wreck”. And they did. On their 2nd single ”Funeral face the Kids sounded as if they had gone on a charter holiday to Mallorca and drunk a healthy amount of colourful drinks with umbrellas. There’s always an element of surprise when you head a new song by the band. The songs are full of unexpected twists and turns and their pessimism is filtered through sunny melodies. And despite they’ve never really written two songs in the same kind of style, everything they write sound very much like Suburban Kids with Biblical Names. They describe they song writing process like Johan slice the songs and Peter polish them up. A lot of the time they polish the songs over and over again before they’re happy. A song may start like a punk pop song, but end up as some kind of calypso. They’re perfectionists for sure, but not in the old fashioned way. Playfulness is a key word. Suburban Kids with Biblical Names are already one of the most appreciated and popular indiepop bands in Sweden. Lately the rumour has ...

    “Funeral face” sounds as if the Suburban Kids have gone on charter holiday to Mallorca and drunk a healthy amount of colourful drinks with umbrellas. The truth is, of course, that they’ve recorded it all in Peter’s parents laundry room. With ”Rent a wreck” from the first EP (#1) SKWBN wanted to turn all the dance floors into a burning inferno of “ba ba ba”. And they truly did. Then they played every place with a PA in Sweden. Twice. They also did a brief tour over in the UK. The new EP #2 definitely sounds like Suburban Kids with Biblical Names. The songs are playful, full of unexpected twists and turns and their pessimism is filtered through sunny melodies. Even though they’ve never really written two songs in the same kind of style, everything they write sounds very much like Suburban Kids with Biblical Names. They describe they song writing process like Johan slice the songs and Peter polish them up. A lot of the time they polish the songs over and over again before they’re happy. A song may start like a punk pop song, but end up as some kind of calypso. Suburban Kids with Biblical Names are already one of the most appreciated and popular indiepop bands in Sweden. Lately the rumour has been starting to spread to the rest of the world. Right now they’re working on their debut album due to be released on August 17 in Sweden and sometime autumn 2005 in the rest of the world.
