MP3: September Malevolence - Who watches the watchmen?
Another week, another chapter in our ongoing 2008 Göteborg music spotlight. This week’s guest: Martin Lundmark from September Malevolence/A TenderVersion Recording. So what’s up with the Gbg postrock scene anyway? Does September Malevolence consider themselves a part of that? Does it even exist? Well no, I don’t really think there’s a specific scene for postrock here, the city is too small. There are some bands though, and I guess we all more or less know each other, but scene? Nah. How would you say the music scene in Gbg compare to other cities in Sweden? What makes Gbg better (or worse) in comparison? I think it’s pretty good, there are loads of bands here. It’s also far more diverse than people in general believe. The underground is so much better than the mostly boring bands that get media attention… As far as TenderVersion goes, do you consider yourself a regional label, dedicated to documenting the local scene? I know you have those shitheads Scraps of Tape from Malmö on your label, but let’s forget about them for now, especially that Johan guy. How important do you think it is that there are labels around to do that? Haha… everybody knows Johan’s a dick! I haven’t really thought of TenderVersion as being a regional label, and now that Audrey is spread around the country and I’ve signed Yamon Yamon from Sthlm, I guess it’s not the case. It kind of was in the beginning when Once We Were, Audrey and September Malevolence all lived in Göteborg though. The main focus for TenderVersion has always been to get outside of Sweden, that’s where the action is. Jerry Bowman seems to resent me calling him a scenester in an earlier entry of this Gbg spotlight series (see here and here). Was I off-base? What’s his deal anyway? Pen Expers are not a good band. Well, I’ve only read his blog a few times. And scanning through it now to be able to answer this question, I think you are right. And we don’t share the same musical taste for sure. File under: Yawn… What do you see as the future of the Gbg music scene? Any upcoming trends to keep an eye on? Hm, that’s a tricky one. I hope to see more experimental stuff coming out of Gbg soon. That would be awesome! And that they get some attention mediawise! The 40-year olds at GP write about Håkan Hellström and Kent, the 30-year olds write about Hästpojken… not my cup of tea. What we need now are some passionate kids with a taste for the new and eclectic! Rise above the mainstream, anyone? And as for September Malevolence, what are your upcoming plans? Care to share a new song? Well, the new album is released May 30th in Europe and a bit later in Japan. We are hitting the road for three weeks in May/June doing our 5th European tour and are hoping to go to Japan later this year. Basically we want to tour as much as possible… why don’t you hook us up in the US dude?
I’ve attached “Who watches the watchmen?”, the first track from the upcoming CD/LP “After this darkness, there’s a next”. It’s a killer! Indeed it is…
