Chilly Chimes / Fifth Avenue / Overdoze / High Voltage / Santa Luzia / Superstition
Swedish vocals, English vocals
International relevance: *
A case of 'progg by association', as
the main motive for including ”Ljud från Friberga” is that it
has two exclusive tracks by Chilly Chimes that eventually developed
into Mörbyligan. Two bad tracks at that, sounding like revved-up
singalong second rate rhythm & blues. Santa Luzia has vague progg
credentials too sounding like an electrified youth recreation center
version of Röda Bönor. The album's often classified as punk, and
while some of the six bands on this short disc have a punky edge,
some of them sound more like garage rock bands lost in time. One of
those is also the best of the lot, Fifth Avenue which comes off as a
lingonberry version of British band The Cannibals.
The album was released in two versions, the first (in 400 copies) had a yellow background and brown picture, the second edition had a brown background with a yellow picture. The first edition seems rarer but the second edition is rather scarce too these days, but the album's not really worth looking for.
