Urban Cone on buzzsessions sound great

I recently came across The Wild Honey Pie recording sessions and have been hooked.   They get some amazing performances from some of music's coolest new bands.  Watching Kishi Bashi playing "Manchester" is seriously inspiring.  Washes your soul from all the homogenous garbage drilled into your ear by the music industry.  

Anyhow, the most recent buzzsession recording on the site was from the Swedish band Urban Cone.  If you haven't heard their music before, well then you are missing out on some seriously catchy ear-crack.  Like I say over and over again on this blog, Sweden knows how to crank out catchy bands. It's in their DNA to make pop grooves.

Here's "We Could Go To France" from Urban Cone. This sounds as good if not better recorded raw and live. 


"Freak" was their standout track from their album "Our Youth." The track really comes alive when the guitar cuts in around 40 seconds in.  Nice blending of the sparse guitar playing within the layered synths.   Pick up this album if you have a pulse and like catchy music with heart.  Perfect music to start the weekend.
