Description: | In 1994 BMG Sweden signed five young boys from Swedish small town Eskilstuna to the local RCA label.
The band ?? kent - had just moved to Stockholm and were building a reputation as one of the most interesting new bands around at the time. With influences from British shoegaze and indie bands mixed with Swedish lyrics, they got plenty of hang-arounds and started to be the talk of the town.
For their albums ??Isola?(1997) and ??Hagnesta Hill?(1999) the band moved to a more synth based sound and tried to establish the band outside the Nordic region and both albums were recorded in English as well. The albums were at the time only released on CD and cassette and did pretty well in many countries in and outside Europe. Now finally, it??s time to release the ??English albums? on vinyl for the first time.
