Enter to win a prize pack from We Are Serenades.

If you’re not already familiar with them, then we’d like to introduce you to an amazing band called We Are Serenades. Based in Stockholm, Sweden, Serenades are the dynamic duo of Adam Olenius (Shout Out Louds) and Markus Krunegard, two of Sweden’s most highly-regarded songwriters.

A chance meeting between two sultry leaders of two traveling packs of musicians, stealing glances on the sly at a truck stop somewhere along the Autobahn. A short and shy conversation, sweetly cramped by mutual admiration, and the first ice was broken. Once back home in Stockholm, Sweden, the two continued to run into one another, in clubs and bars, always at night, they were an artful smash-up waiting to happen. That time finally came in the winter of 2010/2011. Olenius and Krunegård picked out a studio where they spent two months compiling the bits and pieces they had accumulated over the past 4 years into a full length album. The album Criminal Heaven ended up consisting of 10 songs, all constructed according to the gospel of Markus and Adam.

Enter To Win a Copy of Neck Of The Woods on Yellow Colored Vinyl

Neck of the Woods by Silversun Pickups on yellow colored vinyl

Neck of the Woods sees Silversun Pickups lighting out for the territories, stretching the boundaries of their exhilarating psychedelia with confidence, invention, and undeniable ambition.  Having long made their bones as masters of widescreen power, the Los Angeles-based band’s third Dangerbird Records album takes their filmic vision to another level entirely – this is full-on IMAX rock ‘n’ roll, in stereoscopic 3D and Sensurround.  Starting with the mesmerizing first single, “Bloody Mary (Nerve Endings),” the album fairly detonates with high definition creativity.  Roomier rhythms and judiciously applied electronic shadings form a blissed out base camp for the band’s electrifying aural adventures, the elegiac landscapes of Neck of the Woods revealing an unbridled expansion of the already impressive SSPU sound.
