Hey Guys,you forgot Elegant Machinery.
If you love Dm,if you love pure synth-pop,just synth everywhere,try this band.
They now split up,but it's still damn good,it worth a listen,catch "Decade of thoughts",and you'll see.
...
Come on boyz and girlz!!!!
...you can halt your car for an afternoon in Utopia...

Yes,I´ve hear about EM...but I didn´t know that they´ve split...Do you know why?
*I´m your best friend-the dream*
yeah, I have a maxisingle and some tracks on compilations. At first they sound good, really synthpop, but it gets tiring after a while. They are very much inspired by Erasure and Depeche Mode, and doesn´t seem to have their own style - a little un-original for my taste.

His name is Johan Malmgren and played synth
The singer in EM is Robert Enforsen
And it was Richard that wanted to be a teacher....not Robert the singer that I said....wrong by me. <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

I think EM are (or were) the best of the new synthpop groups from the 90:s.
For those of you who have not heard them, they sound like a mixture between Erasure and Depeche Mode. On their first CD, "Degraded faces", they are closer to DM. On their second CD, "Shattered grounds", they are somewhere in between, and on their third CD, "Yesterday men", they are closer to Erasure.
They also made a complation with 12 tracks, including 2 new songs and 4 B-sides. The rest were remixes of some of their old songs (not the best). So I recommend the 3 original albums!
Their best songs are "Shattered grounds" (from the CD with the same name) and "Save me" (from Yesterday men).

I have some friends that where at the Arvika-Festivalen and meet one from the band and hade a party together. They have meet before and at Arvika they spoke about a koncert agein in Nybro....just for fun.
In Nybro here in Sweden there is a synth-club that hade some meetings. At the meetings people come from Stockholm to just to join for one day.
Back to EM....this guy that my friend knows, said that he will try to get the band together for a show. But one from the members are hard to get to join for a show agein.
But I hope!!!

I really like EM. Maybe they don´t sound very original. But it´s really SWEET music. My EM-fave are absoulutely "Save Me". I really love all three af their original albums. One thing is certain:
Best swedish synth ever!! (my oppinion)
With all my love - I went into the world
Well I downloaded the whole album Degraded faces a couple of days ago, and the only song that was good was Process!

Well, their first is in my oppinion their least good one. Try listen to, "Shattered grounds", the first four tracks is really nice! On "Yesterday Men" you have "Save Me" as track #2, the best song they´ve done according to me...
But if you don´t like it... smaken är som baken... :)

Yeah, I like it [smile] I got it on November 28 so I've heard it for a couple of days now. A worthy follow up to their last real studio album from 1996 Yesterday Man. Still the same nice 80s sound [smile]
