They still make music like that!

"For all 4AD old-hands, or anyone who just likes good indie rock in general: This one is for you.This is the upbeat side of early Throwing Muses and Bettie Serveert rolled up into one, with liberal sprinklings of harder and more spiky influences, including beautifully stark, energetic vocals with a serrated edge of desperation. But more than enough innovation to claim their own unique style, too.You just don't find much of this sort of thing anymore, which we were spoilt with in the late 80s and early 90s. But just because there are roots doesn't mean these young Swedes fall into the retro trap: They don't sound dated for a second. This is pure rock vitality for this or any other millennium.All in all: One of the best indie-style acts around, and probably _the_ best all-girl rock band ever."
