((Love is All)) Band Profile and Upcoming New York City Concerts - Oh My Rockness
Love is All
Sweden's Love is All is a festive band that delightfully riffs their way through catchy choruses. A buzz is building in response to their recent tour, but the real groundwork was formed a while back when the late great John Peel counted himself as a fan. If that guy was in your corner, you were golden.
These four guys and one woman (she sings) play post-punk that prefers "fun" and "jangly" over "angst" and "gloomy." Of course you probably already know that, considering the name they chose for their band. What I hear most when listening to Love is All is The Wedding Present's strums crossed with The Go! Team's affirmative temperament. Love is All's music defies these cynical times, making them the most optimistic of rebels.
