SOUNDTRACK OF OUR LIVES
Gimme Five! EP (Hidden Agenda/Telegram)
Reviewed by John Sekerka

Frankly I've been a bit slow to get on board with these guys, but this little fiver should help. With unparalleled acclaim - even a Grammy nomination for cripes sake - The Soundtrack of Our Lives may be the leaders of a very crowded Scandinavian rock and roll invasion, but their sound seemed a little too polished and Beach Boysy sounding to get my blood boiling. Yet when delivered in small doses, as here, the tastebuds start to come alive. Forget all the garage talk, that may be true live, but this EP shows these music gents for what they truly are: The Swedish Beatles.
