Jag hoppas det här rätt place att posta det här.

Jag tycker i alla fall att det är intressant vad resten av världen tycker om dem. :P

En till recension på engelska (även om pitchfork är amerikanskt?):

Tilläggas bör att pitchfork inte har 5,0 som högsta betyg utan det är 10,0...

"...for every one of these, there are two tracks like "Elvis," which is competent but interchangeable with all kinds of stuff you hear on commercial alternative radio these days"

"there's also something that seems cliched, like Isola is some record executive's idea of what "modern alternative" is supposed to be"

Amerikaner och musik alltså...

Jag vet inte hur det var way back in 98, men idag känns det som att alla hipster-kids blir matade sin "alternativa musiksmak" via Pitchfork. Det var säkert därför Kent misslyckades i USA...

Pitchfork må vara fruktansvärt inkorrekta mest hela tiden, men den första paragrafen är så korrekt att jag blir rörd.

Kent is being touted as "The Swedish Radiohead" and who's going to argue? Lead singer Joakim Berg has that Yorke-ish emotional tinge to his high tenor voice (with just a hint of Corgan), the production is lush and full, and the songs all have an epic quality. Like Radiohead, Kent seems like a band destined to play stadiums, with a huge sound structured around sing- along choruses, power chords, and pieces that build from tinkly piano intros into crashing epiphanies. To some people, this sounds great, while others will find the latter- day U2-isms bombastic and obnoxious. In other words, if you like your rock as big and clear as the Montana sky, you'll be digging on Kent.

Håller med om att de faktiskt lyckats fånga dem rätt bra i den beskrivningen. Min brittiska vän tycker att de svenska låtarna låter bättre än deras engelska motsvarigheter.
