Michael F. With an uncanny resemblance to A SILENT FILM on "Rio". this Swedish outfit offer up some seriously catchy alt-rock, with melodies to burn. I would be all over this if you misplaced your collection of THE KILLERS or find INTERPOL up your alley. One seriously talented outfit...give em some love. Excellent. Favorite track: Rio.

Your wedding dress is black, your wedding dress is black and your future made of stone, your wedding dress is black You lost another friend, you've made yourself an enemy and though you try to smile your wedding dress is black, your wedding dress is black And fish don't swim in troubled waters and the sun never shines over dark landscapes and birds can't sing if they're made of stone and you can't marry 'cause your wedding dress is black You lost another friend oh you lost another friend and this crazy game must come to an end cause you lost another friend Your wedding dress is black, oh your wedding dress is black and this crazy game must come to an end cause you lost another friend And fish don't swim in troubled waters and the sun never shines over dark landscapes and birds can't sing if they're made of stone and you can't marry 'cause your wedding dress is black

Hologram 03:44
Hurricanes still fly by my head and the fear it still hides under my bed and foggy days have been left behind by now what do you have to say? Hurricanes don't fly in this world anymore, they disappeared years ago from shore Tired of this emptiness, these cold hearts So tired of this emptiness, these cold hearts Mary, told her sons, do never throw your heart away the day you start to fade away And every bridge that you may cross remember that every stream of light you see is a hologram of me Cause it's all we've seen and all we heard and all we knew This world existence is just a hologram in blue A hologram It's all we've seen and all we've heard and all we knew and you don't even know what you have to improve But in every world existence there is another bridge to burn so what will you tell me now?

Rio 03:05
I'm not the one that I used to be Rio, you got the youth of me 'Cause life ain't what it used to be A paranormal is what you've done to me Flowers grow while I grow older, and nothing really happens these days So I want revolution And I cant defend myself and I can't talk to people I still believe in one truth that lies are more than flies that fly around And flowers grow while I grow older, and nothing really happens these days So I want revolution

RFX 03:34
You told me to stay, and now I've seen it all You told me to pray for your artistic ways You told me to lie without my fingers crossed You told me to cry my red eyes out for you And I don't know why your face is red and hot But I'm running from a moment I can't escape And I don't know why but there's something with the horizon So I'm running for a distance I can't reach But It's all over now and I am out of trust it doesn't matter now if you are dead or alive cause I'm a memory filled Filled of frustration and regret I'm only a wasted soul waiting to forget And I don't know why your face is red and hot But I'm running from a moment I can't escape And I don't know why but there's something with the horizon So I'm running for a distance I can't reach And I don't know why your face is red and hot But I'm running from a moment I can't escape And my name is RFX - 1 and I don't belong here So I'm running for a distance I can't reach

Crystal Sea 06:01
Dive with me into the crystal sea Leave all that we had in the crystal field Our wounds get cleaned by the water we swim And the sun blinds our eyes after years of dark nights So crystal sea, crystal sea, bury me. Dive with me into our destiny You know that our real souls belongs to the crystal sea We were always afraid of losing our breaths under oceans And we were always to slow to catch the fishes with diamonds in their eyes So crystal sea, crystal sea, you're a place in me And there is nothing you can't buy for money, it's a biological human fact And how can't there be something you don't see Beyond those grey walls, made of stone
