SOUNDTRACK OF OUR LIVES

With the face of an evangelical preacher on over-drive, is Ebbot Lundberg just another prog-head revisited? New gal on the block, Natasha House reports on another Swedish export.

17/05/2002

The Soundtrack of Our Lives (SOOL) are in full, blistering, dramatic, iconic swing. Norse god cum-hippy rock Bungle look-a-like Ebbot Lundberg is singing like a man posessed by the spirit of every music legend to have graced planet Earth.

Faces upturned to this musical revelation, the Northampton Soundhaus punters have their hopes confirmed - a band even better than the hype suggests.

Building a wall of sound to rival any of their contemporaries, SOOL blast us with euphoric, pyschedelic rock, the soundtrack to the best summers you ever had.

Lundberg jiggles, gesticulates and pulls faces like an evangelical preacher on over-drive, whilst the band crash about in hilarious rock'n'roll poses. Jumping into the crowd to fraternise with the fans, Lundberg instructs everyone to sit down, while he wanders around muttering as if it's some kind of hippy-seance.

A pretentious revisitation of prog-rock? No - SOOL inject a contemporary edge to their music which is unmissable, unique. This, the last date of their UK tour is another triumph for Sweden, with rock bands rivalling Ikea for the nation's biggest export. Whatever they put in the water over there, seems to be working.
