The Stockholm Monsters
Alma Mater
2 out of 5
Highlights:
Where I Belong
Jangle rock, synth with trumpets and drum machines. What the hell is The Stockholm Monsters? Weird and unlike anything happening at the time and yet, calls to mind a bunch of bands. Are they New Order? There’s a taste of the Smiths. The singer calls to mind Lydon.
And then it just goes on and one and one….and it all sounds like one guy with a 4 track machine and he’s become boring. He’s like the guest that won’t leave but insists on playing his original songs at your party.
