Escape from boredom

Only 50 NOK at Platekompaniet. Must say that I fancy this kind of rap, slow and heavy rythms…gangsta rap 🙂

As so often before, was listening to http://launch.yahoo.com when they played Everlast. Learned now that he was part of House of Pain (Jump around….).

Plain and simple rock’n roll, first heard about them when listening to Pyro a year ago. http://www.dankojones.com/

No reason to explain why! Just check http://www.platekompaniet.no/cdproduct.asp?id=9864903

Have for long wanted something with Live, since I am a great fan of some of their songs, for instance Selling the Drama. So when at Platekompaniet, I had to buy it. Listening to it right now at work. More of Live at http://www.friendsoflive.com/

Me and Elin went to Platekompaniet since there was a power breakdown in Oslo yesterday, because of that the movie we went to see was cancelled. Had been wandering around for a while when stumbeling over this record. Remember that my mother had it when I was a kid, I jused to play it, so I had to buy it. The following text in Norwegian is written inside the cover:

I 1972 var vi ivrige deltakere i to politiske oppgjør: Kampen for å bevare Bakklandet og kampen mot EEC. Vi så dem som to sider av samme sak. Derfor laget vi historien om Bakklandet Bassangforening for å omgå den politiske sensuren i NRK.
Da vi så skulle spille inn denne platen i 1975, hadde Norge sagt nei til EEC, og kampen for Bakklandet så ut til å være vunnet. Derfor må vi innrømme at historien om Bassangforeningen skled litt ut. Den ble nok ikke helt politisk korrekt.
Nå er EEC blitt EU, men ideen er den samme. Baklandet er blitt fint, men sjelen er den samme. Planter er blitt CD, men innholdet er det ikke noe å gjøre med.
Det er dette som kalles fremskritt.

As written above, this is really a project by Knutsen og Ludvigsen, but it’s given the name Bakklandet Bassangforening to decoy NRK 🙂

Have heard their single Feel Good Inc. for quite a while now, and when I came accross the cd in Plovdiv for an affordable price I just had to buy it. Not able to judge it yet, since I just came home from vacation and haven’t been able to listen to it…but Feel Good Inc. is cool…!

It’s been a while since I got this cd from Elin as a present. Anyhow, Bigbang, need I say more….fly like a butterfly, sting like a bee!!!

Heard them a lot at http://launch.yahoo.com and just had to buy them. Really enjoy the cd! It’s kinda like Nirvana, not to strange, since the cd is from 1994

40 NKR at Platekompaniet, no reason not to buy one of the best albums in Norway last year.
