(9/10) Exactly four years ago, I had the chance to visit Jyvaskyla in Finland, which is a smaller city North of Helsinki. Every time a new Swallow The Sun album is on its way, I'm reminded of walking through the wintery streets of Jyvaskyla, which, on a grey day, feels like someone seriously swallowed the...

(*/10) Skunk Anansie is a role model when it comes to individualism, willpower and eagerness to live their own dream.
