The Rolling Stones, The Allman Brothers Band, The Replacements, Faces, Gram Parsons, The Black Crowes, Jacobites, Grateful Dead, Bob Dylan, Steve Earle, blah, blah and the list goes on... Good music you know. Not to mention beer, people, plants, pants, this + that + stuff that we find in Mikael's magical beard.
The Love Injections are a rootsy five-piece rock & roll band located in-and-around the town of Lidköping, Sweden. The band consists of singer KJ Svensson, guitarists Fredrik "Judo" Simonson & Mikael Westerlund, bassist Henrik "Linkan" Lindquist and drummer Tobbe Rogbrant.
The Love Injections came together as sort of an offshoot from various other local acts at the tail-end of 2001 and spent the following five years releasing
three critically acclaimed demo CDs, building a small but dedicated global fan-base, screwing up a record deal, scoring a publishing deal (albeit with a
company who ignored them until it ran out), changing line-ups, doing a fair bit of gigging, listening to the usual industry BS sweet-talk and appearing on a
bunch of compilation albums.
In 2007 the band signed a record deal with italian independant Nicotine Records and recorded their debut album "Trees on a Hill". As mentioned in the album’s sleeve-notes - the whole thing was recorded by themselves on no budget whatsoever in their basement reahearsal space on various pieces of cobbled-together equipment and mixed in a local studio during down-time. The resulting album is a passionate and sprawling twelve-song affair showing off the band's songwriting skills along with their vast range of influences from country to rock & roll to psychedelia to folky sweetness - all filtered through the characteristic Love Injections machinery.
If you like your rock to roll this will most likely be your cup of tea!
