Album: S/T
Year: 2007
Country: Denmark
These danish sweethearts wasn't a very long lived band. They came out with a album, an EP, played some shows in their country, and then LE POUFF, they were gone. I heard about them a year or two ago from a friend who tends to dig up bands from their graves. And nowadays Skt. Conrad seems to be a pretty popular band amongst the skramz kids.
Denmark isn't a country famous for making good music (even though they have some diamonds, and more to come), so I was very surprised when I heard about their origin, and the fact that they wrote some songs in Danish. This album actually starts off very nicely with a song in Danish, and it doesn't sound bad at all! To us Swedes, Danish is normally a kind of a "drunken" and totally hilarious language, but it doesn't sound like this here.
When it comes to the music, it's not something new and bizarre you would have a very hard time to listen to. It's quite the opposite, they are going with the 90's emo thing, so it's pretty simple. They mostly use clean vocals, with some screaming in the chorus. If they had continued to play until today, they probably be a big commercial band.
Song(s) you should listen to: Freezing In November is the typical Skt. Conrad song. It starts out a bit shy, but it will grow into a black and battled teenage angst choir. The biggest reason for listening to this song though, is that the singer sound so sad and heartbroken. You will feel pity for this little boy.
