HappyDeadMen was previously reported to have quit by another source on the net, but this was not quite what had happened with the band. On the contrary, the band is still alive and well, but are in the process of changing name, and with that, label as well. Their latest album "Bullfights Every Sunday" which has only been released in Japan so far (in February 1997 no less), will finally be released in Sweden and everywhere else but Japan on Torpedo Records. The street date is set to May 20th. This will not just be a release of the same album though - a couple of new extra tracks have been added as well. For more information contact Torpedo Records at: info@torpedo.m.se. +++ Recording, releasing, playing: Barusta The much hyped (and probably worth it too) band Barusta (Starboy) have an EP on the way called "The Game". Produced by Ebbot Lundberg and with a release date of May 13th. June 1st marks the day when the band enters the studio to record their debut album. A release is set to August/September. If you're interested in seeing them play live, you should go to Fritz's Corner in Stockholm on May 2nd, where they play together with label mates Freinds. +++ Cinnamon II Cinnamon (Soap Records) start recording their second album this summer (in June) and the tentative release is set to "winter". +++ More bliss from Loudean Scan-Indie favourites Loudean (Soap Records) release their second single called "The Best Show" on June 8th - conveniently right before their appearence at the Hultsfred Festival. The yet unnamed debut album is scheduled for a release in September. +++ A second Melony album on the way Melony (Soap Records) have spent some time recorded a couple of songs for their upcoming second album. The rest will be recorded during the summer, and everything should be ready for release around October. +++ This Perfect Day in the US The latest album from This Perfect Day (Soap Records) "C-60" will be released on Sony/550 Music in the US May 19th. The single "Could Have Been Friends" has already been released and reportedly added to a lot of radio playlists. +++ Primal Music / Monolithic News The second Monolithic Minds compilation (volume 2) was released last week, April 22nd, on Primal Music's sublabel Monolithic. Ten tracks with Swedish drum'n'bass artists Eclectic Bob, Grand Nip, Yoga, Baxter, Friend, Juicehead, Spinform, Quant, Darchives and Perphane. Note that Baxter and Yoga are primarily (pun intended) signed to the Primal Music label and that Spinform are signed to RUC (Recordings Under Construction). Baxter (the two Eclectic Bob guys Ricky Tillblad and Carl Herlofsson together with Salt/Grand Tone Music and Sin-all-time- favourite-singer Nina Ramsby) contributes with an instrumental remix of one of their own songs. Baxter's debut album will be released late summer/early autumn on Primal Music in the Scandinavian/Nordic countries, Maverick in the US and Warner everywhere else. Yoga have their debut album on the way, which will be released on May 25th and not sound like anything else, if you believe what they say. If you'd like to see some of these bands play live, there's an all-nighter at Rangus Tangus (the basement at Snaps, Gotgatan 48, Medborgarplatsen) in Stockholm on May 7th, which starts at 9pm (21.00). +++ Depeche Mode Tour Scandinavia Depeche Mode return to the road this autumn. The band embark on an extensive two-month UK and European tour in September and October, with further dates in the US to follow in November and December. The new tour is entitled 'The Singles Tour 86-98'. This is the first time Depeche Mode can been seen in concert since the summer of 1993, when their 'Devotional' tour was seen by over two million people around the world. The European shows coincide with the release of a new singles compilation album, which will also include new material the band are currently recording with producer Tim Simenon in London. A single with a new song will be released before the album. Note that the band will also perform these new songs on the tour. Tickets to the Swedish gigs can be bought from BiljettDirekt (Phone: +46-(0)77-1707070) or directly from the venues for 275 SEK + service fee (usually 20 SEK) starting Monday May 18th. In Scandinavia, the dates are as follows (all in September): +++ The Smashing Pumpkins at Skansen As strange as it may seem, Smashing Pumpkins will play on the Solliden stage at Stockholm's Zoo Skansen on May 25th. This is a part of a special "play at cool places" tour the 'kins have in store for the world. Apart from Skansen, they will play at the Red Square in Moscow, Russia and at the Guggenheim museum in Bilbao, Spain (which should create an excellent backdrop for the band IMO). The band will play new songs from the upcoming album "Adore" which is their first album in three years - and released on June 1st. A preceding single "Ava Adore" is released on May 18th. Tickets in Sweden are 190 SEK + service fee and they go on sale on monday (tomorrow) April 27th. BiljettDirekt (Phone: +46-(0)77-1707070) is the place to call. +++ Swedish Booking Agencies grab the net Both Luger and Motor BA:s have moved on to secure their sites on the Internet. Motor, who could previously only be reached through their Moonfire-address, have acquired the www.motor.se URL, and Luger, who were previously stationed at BA EMA Telstar's website, have finally hired a webmaster (not a day too soon if you ask me - but then again, I actually suggested myself for the job two years ago... :-)) who's workload must be enormous - which has resulted in a soon-to-be-ready site.

I'm just wondering when the US release of the new Komeda album's going to be. For all I know it could allready be out but I haven't seen it in any stores anywhere or anything so I'm kinda wondering whether I should wait our just suck it up and mail-order the thing.

If you are a patient person you can just sit down and wait. I think the album was initially planned to be released in the US at the same time as the Swedish release. But the US release has been delayed. According to the official Komeda homepage (www.acc.umu.se/~bee/komeda/) June 9th is the date to keep in mind for interested Americans (and others living there). And it is definitely worth waiting for! /Micke ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 27 Apr 1998 11:56:24 +0200 From: Jonas S Subject: IOTA & PLUXUS live in GBG IOTA & PLUXUS are two of the most celebrated Slowball acts. Both have recently released fine EPs on the stockholm label and the press have been very positive. On Friday (May 1st) both bands will perform at Pusterviksteatern in Gothenburg. IOTA will go on stage at 20.30 and play their free instrumental pop/rock. Then PLUXUS will do their electronic performance. The show will be closed of by both bands playing together. Believe me - this could be pretty amazing. Before, inbetween & after the concerts DJ AGGE will mix postrock, electronica, drums'n'bass, dub & hip hip. So be there or be []. http://come.to/slowball warmest regards, jonas & slowball recordings ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 27 Apr 1998 17:19:10 +0200 From: "Micke Rehnstrom" Subject: SV: Happydeadmen (was:[NEWS] SiNews This Week [26-Apr-98]) Erik Soderstrom wrote: > HappyDeadMen have *not* split up! > HappyDeadMen was previously reported to have quit by another source > on the net, but this was not quite what had happened with the band. > On the contrary, the band is still alive and well, Yes! According to an e-mail that the band sent to this "other source on the net" (you know which one it is by now, dont you?) the response from people who did not want the band to quit made them change their minds and stay with us a little longer. And Torpedo Records were among those who decided to act and actually do something.

The > street date is set to May 20th. And around this time there will also be a compilation album with HAPPYDEADMEN out on the new label Summersound Recording. This will, among other things, feature material from the beginning of their "career", some of it previously unreleased. /Micke, who finds it quite pleasant to see that Sweden is not all covered with indifference about what is actually happening. (Just hoping that it would spread to more "important" areas too). ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 27 Apr 1998 20:37:23 +0200 From: Erik Soderstrom Subject: Re: Komeda US Release Date At 01:17 1998-04-27 -0400, you wrote: > Hey there... > I'm just wondering when the US release of the new Komeda album's > going to be.

The cool (take the irony with a smike, okay? ;)) Scan-Indie web site's page "Upcoming Record Releases" is usually a good source to check when looking for upcoming releases http://www.lysator.liu.se/~chief/uprecnew.html and it says: June 9th. //Erik ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 27 Apr 1998 22:16:59 +0200 From: Erik Soderstrom Subject: Re: SV: Happydeadmen (was:[NEWS] SiNews This Week [26-Apr-98]) > Yes! According to an e-mail that the band sent to this "other source on the > net" (you know which one it is by now, dont you?) Heh heh, yeah, it was pretty interesting to see the news there today - someone got quick feet all in a hurry. They (well, you, as I know you're reading this anyway) were lucky I didn't post the news when I got it last week. ;-) In fact, according to "my source" (wow, doesn't this sound intreaguing?) the person who told the person at the "other source" actually also told him it was just a name change and not a split up at all - so why it was made to look like they were about to split up when it got to the news there I don't know. But I know how the evening press work - ie. a story isn't so hot, but it can be made to look like it - and in the same time, you get even more hot news when you can report a change a few days later. Headline Monday: "Mats Sundin quits playing hockey!" (you sell about 100.000 copies) Headline Wednesday: "Mats changed his mind!" (you sell about 100.000 copies) Well, who cares - as long as the truth is out there! ;) Ba da ba da ba da bapp bapp bapp!

Damn - Alternative Nation really show Kent a lot (in Swedish as well, right before they release their English speaking album and singles...) and Monostar! Man, they've come far from the small Gotland bars and clubs these days! It's really rewarding to see them there now - they've worked long and hard for this - and Speed Your Love is a great song. But it's a kind of funny feeling to see Eric on MTV, I must admit. ;) //Erik ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 29 Apr 1998 20:58:03 +0300 (EET DST) From: "timo riitamaa." Subject: roXplosion!
