we think we wouldn't mind being sweeded

sweden seems like a nice place, right? we already drive a saab and we have come across some really sweet bands from there, so we are thinking that we wouldn't mind being sweeded. for those of you who like music and want to grove, we'll give out some of our little sweed secrets. jose' gonzalez - sweed (parents from argentina {wonderful combo}) he has played with zero 7 (not sweeds (u.k.) buy also unreal). the knife - i think that i've had spiritual experiences listening to heartbeats by the knife (heartbeats originally by jose' gonzalez). most recently while listening to npr i heard an amazing song that sounded a little electronic / erykah baduish. well i found out that it is an up-and-coming band from sweden that goes by the name of little dragon. since the discovery we've been groovin to them constantly. oh yeah they are coming to l.a. on their one stop in america while on tour in europe, so that will be nice. here is a nice little diddy to enjoy. buy their stuff on itunes and support this group.

That was cool. I really like the sound. I especially liked the bearded dood bopping his head in the background.

Have you heard of The Sounds? They are a pretty sweet swedish band. I had a roommate that lived in Sweden when she was little. Also, Jose Gonzalez...he wrote the music to the Bravia ad where they dropped a million bouncy balls down a street in San Fran, right?

Sweed/(t) video. Steve is going to Sweden in May. Maybe he'll have to meet these guys in person. The Cleggs and Corrys should all live in Sweden ond day and get SOCIALIZED HEALTH CARE!! WOOOOOO WOOOOO!

I love Jose Gonzalez (especially the heartbeats song). I didn't know he was sweed. Thanks for sharing.
