Unfortunately, the information I received about the 4 Swedes along with the CD was quite sparse, but thanks to the internet, I was able to uncover a few secrets about the STARS OF THE SILVERSCREEN. "Bruised for two" is therefore the second album from the guys from Stockholm and Umeå (with almost 80,000 inhabitants, the 12th largest city in Sweden) after five long years. I don't have their debut album, but it is said to have made a big impact in Scandinavia. I'm not surprised, because their second work rocks really hard as well. According to them, MOTÖRHEAD, MC5, and the RAMONES are their musical idols, but I find their sound more akin to THE BONES and BACKYARD BABIES with a touch of GREEN DAY. All 13 songs clock in at around the rock-friendly 3 minutes, which is just right and straight to the point. There is no experimentation on "Bruised for two"; the rock sound hits you straight in the face without any ifs or buts! I like it :-)
The STARS OF THE SILVERSCREEN have also designed their booklet, CD label, etc., in a similarly straightforward manner. Simple and solid. On the other hand, maybe it's not a bad idea to show off a bit more, because otherwise, you get lost in the crowd. Especially with the many great rock bands that the three Scandinavian countries have (although I can only think of one band from Denmark, with "VOL" at the front and "BEAT" at the back.... no, two, although LEÆTHER STRIP is EBM, and then there's NEKROMANTIX, but they play Psychobilly, oops NUCLEAR DEATH TERROR also comes from DK.... but I'm digressing...), it must be a disease there ;-)
Finally, a note that the STARS OF THE SILVERSCREEN are going on tour in November, maybe even in your city (or not far away), so it's time to go (see you in Salzkotten)!
