The Soundtrack Of Our Lives and Hurula

Formed in Gothenburg, Sweden, in 1995, The Soundtrack of Our Lives - as their name suggests - were the kind of band that liked to wear their hearts pretty firmly on their sleeves; over the course of a career that lasted almost two decades, their brand of psychedelia-tinged alternative rock became a firm favourite across the Western world, securing the group sizable cult fanbases in both the UK and the U.S. That’s perhaps no real surprise when you consider the fact that, despite their Scandinavian heritage, all of their lyrics were in English, and they took inspiration from classic rock acts like The Rolling Stones and The Stooges, too. They released six albums over the course of a seventeen-year span together, with three of them going gold in their native Sweden, but became best-known for their noisy, energetic live shows, which involved career-spanning sets and some extended jams by the time they set off on a farewell jaunt around the world in 2012, in support of final album Throw It to the Universe, one that the band felt completed their journey; they signed off in Stockholm in December of that year with one last huge show - apparently for good.

The most raw concert I've Ever seen. Such presence and authenticity. So much emotions. Unforgettable. So unique, no inter-talk, no thank you speech, no names - just the best songs and lyrics meening so much for so many.
Thank you.
