Molotov Jive

THE SOUND OF YOUNG SWEDEN

About Me


I figured you'd want some information.
Molotov Jive is our lives. But more important than that, it's a rockband. It's a band who'll always put the songs in focus. Those songs that'll make the hairs on your arm stand up when you hear them. Those songs that'll make you shiver. Songs that will remind youngsters that this is the best time in their lives, even though their town is shrinking on their backs. Songs that will make old people remember their youth. You can call it naive but it's not. It's just honest. The songs of Molotov Jive are almoust like a young persons diary, with stories of frustration, passion and life to name a few things. And the sound is the sound of everything good from '63 until the present. It's messy untidied rock'n'roll with pop melodies and if I was going to compare us to something it'd be The Beatles and The Who and The Smiths and those three first Springsteen albums and David Bowie and The Libertines and maybe even Atomic Swing. But then again, that's just me.
/ Anton Annersand
Important things:
Autumn 2006 Molotov Jive released their debut album WHEN IT'S OVER I'LL COME BACK AGAIN through Bonnier Amigo Music. Along with the album the third single titles WEIGHT (OFF MY SHOULDER) is released. The band will during the rest of 2006 and through 2007 tour this album. Both in Sweden and abroad. Don't miss out on hearing these thrilling great rock'n'roll songs and spectacular liveshows.
