If a band does not try to emulate their heroes, then some-
thing is very wrong. Rock n’ roll should be about danger and
passion and musicians are supposed to incite a desire to rebel
and break the rules. While Norway may not be a hotbed like
London and New York, there seems to be something pretty
special going on there, which is apparent with the emergence
of Simon Says No!
This is a band that knows their strengths, things which they
know how to get the most out of. Their raw sound recalls the
glory days of Seattle grunge and the spirit of ‘77 in London,
but the band is nuanced enough to flesh things out with a
fuzziness that wouldn’t seem out of place at a Slowdive or My
Bloody Valentine gig.
The interwebs has begun a love affair with these guys, most
recently with a “Band of the Week” nod on Stranded in Stereo
as well as some radio love from NRK P3, which is their home
country’s leading station. The band’s upcoming debut EP Ahoi
de Angst is everything you could ever want from a budding
band -- it’s both familiar and new, it pushes buttons and it
gives you that feeling that you had the first time you dis-
obeyed your parents.
The band’s recent debut on US soil, with two gigs at the CMJ
Music Marathon in New York, was met with rave reviews and
crowds that were drawn in by the band’s rapturous sets.
