Music: The Knife

the KnifeHere’s some interesting music if you’re ready for a change of pace. This music would probably fall under the genre of Electronic/Indie. I’ve been listening to a few new groups lately like Moby, Flow Machines and now, The Knife. The Knife are a musical duo from Sweden. The band consists of siblings Karin Dreijer Andersson and Olof Dreijer. To say they’re a little different would be an understatement. They pretty much shun most public appearances. Even when they win Grammys for their work, they don’t ever show up for the award presentations. They’re more or less anti-mainstream media and have their own record label, Rabid Records. The picture above is from an interview they did for a station in Stockholm, Sweden.

Below are three of my favorite songs from their albums. The links will take you to the YouTube versions of the songs. Be forewarned though. Some of the videos are pretty bizarre but worth a look. Enjoy.

1. Silent Shout

2. Pass This On

3. Marble House
