I was turned on to this stuff by a Norwegian guy on Mark Wein's forum. Having spent some days in the dark rain with my grunge music, the sun is now out, and I was in the mood for something lighter. This stuff is pretty fun, hooky, seems to be well crafted, and I am into it. Takes me back to 80's summertime pop. Check it out!

This third one shows it is not all sequencers, triggered drums and the like. Great vocal range and a lot of talent, this band.
Like the OP over at Mark's forum said, this stuff is infectious and addictive to me, and shows that Norway is not all black metal.
