The Sounds to tour Europe and the UK.

Swedish indie rock band, The Sounds will be kicking off 2012 by headlining a tour in Europe and the UK at the end of January.

Formed in Helsingborg in 1999, The Sounds have compared to bands such as Blondie, The Cars and Epoxies. With the recent launch of their latest album, Something To Die For, in March this year, the high energy tracks and catchy riffs will have you bouncing up and down like a kid on a trampoline.

The album was independently produced and released by SideOneDummy Records. Receiving rave reviews and gaining notice in Tinseltown, two of the albums tracks have been featured in the blockbuster, Scream 4, and have appeared on the motion picture soundtrack. While the album is their fourth and by far the best, their live performances truly showcase their originality.

One could hardly believe such big vocals could come out of such a petite singer, as the lead singer, Maja Ivarsson, bounces around the stage, the frenetic energy is equalled only by the crowd, who are a seething mass of bodies writhing to the sounds. The eccentric mix of vocals, guitar and keyboards produce a sound that simply must be experienced live.
