Ohm

I wonder if other bloggers ever procrastinate (re: agonize) on writing about a band because they think others have already posted on them or not? Ohm are yet another great Swedish group that I should have written about weeks ago but waited to for some reason. Ohm make electropop that simply makes my heart sing. Spoon is a song that stays with you long after the music ends. Being someone who listens to music obsessively and is always compulsively looking for that next great song or band that , just well, I don't know, completes them in a way. I gotta tell you, as a friend says, "It's hard out there for a pimp." And it is. Cuz that's what bloggers are really. Pimps. Not in a bad way, but in they way that you have to make that hustle, you have to produce something. You ahve to get out what it is you feel you have to make others see. And its not easy. Songs don't always jump out at people, sometimes you have to really, really try to make your point with the words you write. But sometimes, yes sometimes, its easy. Very easy. Easy because the band and the songs make it easy. Ohm just screams to be heard. Their music needs to be head. All I have left to say is that you need to download this song. Listen to it. Listen to is until you don't think you can any longer. Then it will be enough.

Check their myspace here and their homepage here. Starfall, their debut album (though they've been around for almost a decade now) comes out in September and I am sure its gonna be worth the price of admission.
