    Anna von Hausswolff is making the best music Sweden has to offer now. A spectacular talent.

    The best Swedish band ever according to me (I'm Swedish).

    I got into these gals and guys through the Refreshments connection which, in turn, I got into through the Rockpile connection some 20 years ago.

    St. Mikael has been a virtual one man band making his own brand of home-made psychedelia in Sweden since the 1980's. Great voice, great guitar playing, great variety and the songs all have 100% sincerity. This is one of his more accessible numbers:



    Then again the following is the meat of what makes him very special to me, and I'm not even a big fan of Pink Floyd/jammy music:

    ST. MIKAEL - The Veil

    S. T. michael - calling the djinn

    Massive mid-00s Top 10 hit in the UK; heavy radio play all spring and summer that year. Their Paper Tigers album is also excellent.

    Yeah but after seeing Alice Boman live last night I have to say she's definitely a contender. The tour just started so....

    I like Abba and Roxette. I also like Opeth and Ghost. My musical tastes are like night and day, depending on my mood.
