Last Days Of April – Ascend to the Stars – Interview

December 10, 2003

An interview with guitarist/vocalist Karl Larsson

Jupither – It’s Planetary – Review

September 20, 2002

Chirping power pop from Sweden, which means it’s catchy as hell, sung with beautiful vocal lines (and accents), well-recorded, and a lot of fun.

Harsh vocal screams over buzzing guitar lines that use single notes more than chords, atom bomb drums and the ability to instigate spazz-out schizophrenia.

We should be ashamed of ourselves for not embracing this Swedish quartet. No other act has been able to carry on Quicksand’s post-hardcore as effortlessly.

April 1, 1999

Their slower songs, “Lifehighschool” and “Daycap,” bring Hum to mind, while some of their other stuff has a Sunny Day Real Estate feel.

Boys Life – Boys Life / Vitreous Humor – “Temporary” / “Why Are You So Mean To Me?” – Review

February 1, 1995

Boy’s Life sound more hardcore than punk to me: Loud and heavy guitars, lots of shouting and big drums.
