Midsummer 2Lax10

Swedish heathen holiday coming up. Some are dancing round a blossoming pole. We are still recording and cutting corners in the Stockholm underground for financial benefit. Way to go Oskar! (pic by Jenny Vaz)

Happy midsummer/ MJ

Summer 10

Yes, it's true. The summer is finally a fact in our part of the world. Also Anders had his birthday yesterday. We celebrated him with records and rehearsing. Then we had a photo session in the sun with our friend Mårten behind the camera. The result will come asap.
On Saturday Johan and Anton will spin some wax when Vurma bar celebrate their first year in the business. Birger Jarlsgatan 36 is the adress. A perfect opportunity to hail the almighty sun if you ask me.

Just Leave On Visions.de

The news of our new song Just Leave spreads like the wind. It's now on the front page of German music magazine Visions. They write "The completely self-produced video shows the darkest song of the band so far".

Back home

Hi everybody! We got back safe but very late last night. London has treated us very well with a great audience at the show and endless nights with good people and loud music. I have looked through my camera and thought I might share some pictures from the weekend. Thank you for this time London. //Oskar

Cathedrals and seaguls

We've been in a cathedral all day, recording songs. Old and new. The place had great atmosphere of religious proportions (maybe obvious). We recorded and filmed church organ versions of the songs that we are gonna release sometime as the English Cathedral sessions, or at least that is our intention. Here's some pics. Lots of love / Anton and Ozzy

Fuck The Police!

Hell of a first day, boys and girls! Anton realised sooner than later that he left his passport behind. Again! We rushed in our car only to be caught by the long arm of the law. One speeding ticket later we were at Arlanda trying to change Johnny's ticket as it was booked in the name Johnny Annersand. We arrived in England last night with a cab waiting for us at the airport with a sign that said "Molotov Hives". We got into town and went for indian food.

Today we're getting down to bizz. Recording sessions are booked. The night is some kind of mingle party at a bank tonight, little food on toothpicks is just what I need. Don't ask us what we're doing at the bank cos we cannot tell you. Yet!!! :)

Catch you later! // MJ

Hallelujah!

Time is moving fast. In a couple of days we're going to London again to do what we do best; play great music and spend our money on rags and fun. Also we are going to record some of our tunes in a slightly different location than we are used to. We are gonna record it in a church. Johnny Handsome will be responsible for the sound on this recording. Hopefully you will hear the result of this "Church session" in a near future.

Amen!

Dj Anton gonna spin that shit!

Hey you, rocksteady crew.
I, Anton the last record collector standing, will Dj at Vurma in Stockholm on friday to celebrate that spring is finally here.
Come down and shake off that winter depression to some great indie rock'n'roll for me.

Fulham Palace!

It was a while ago since we where there but Anders, hey! You've got what you asked for. We´re going to England! 8th of May, Fulham Palace it is. lots has happened since we were there so come by and have a great evening and watch us play some epic rock for you. Molotov Jive is co-headlining with Sven-Bertil Taube!

See you there // Johnny

a great start...

"In this light and on this evening" is great song to open an album with, you should listen to it if you haven't heard it.

Saturday afternoon.

Thanks everyone who came down to Record Hunter to watch Anton and Johan play a couple of MJ tunes and buy some records yesterday. It was a very pleasant way to spend your Saturday afternoon. I arrived a little bit late so I couldn't squeeze myself down to the basement but I managed to reach down with my arm to take this picture:

Record Store Day!

I am very happy tell you all that my good friends Anton and Johan will celebrate Record Store Day by playing acoustic at Record Hunter Store in Stockholm. They are very psyched and are both looking forward to it. They told me to tell you all to come down there this Saturday at 4 o'clock and enjoy some of your favourite MJ songs. (maybe some new ones as well)

Kvarnberget Skyline

Here I stand, guitar in hand, gazing over my hometown skyline. Kvarnberget is as close as I got to Manhattan as a kid. I used to make pretend that it was. And that I was a young Lou Reed or Iggy Pop in pursuit of kicks and great art. Since then I have seen Manhattan and other great places but no place make me feel like I do here. We're performing tonight, pursuing great art and kicks if you will, at Nöjesfabriken. Along with Teddybears, Satan takes a Holiday and Televinken. See you at 10.

Love xoxo ANTON A
