Title Description:
All seemed quite rosy for this grand Swedish band, gaining respect in their homeland and abroad, the punters were crying for more, however, in recent years all has been quiet - so what has been happening?? Well as it turns, and yes all will turn my friend, the original members - Bengt Liljstad, Jonas Bergkvist and later Yngwie Moskowich & Anders Rydberg - all left the band and were exchanged during recent years by the current band-members: Andi Pieper, Ramon Bauer & Gerhard Potuznik!
So now in 2003, here we have a new Sluta Leta line up and a brand new record called Semi Peterson. Their first full length.
Vital Review:
SLUTA LETA - SEMI PETERSON (CD by Mego)
Originally Sluta Leta were a Swedish trio who released 12"s on Mego,
Uptight, Cheap and Chocolate Industries, but over the course of years the
three members left and now three other people are Sluta Leta: Andi Pieper,
Ramon Bauer and Gerhard Potuznik. So we might say an Austrian take-over. And
these three produced the first full length album. I must admit I didn't know
the previous 12"s that well, but the album is a true pleasure to hear. Short
but powerful rock inspired sampled pieces, with vocals, lush keyboards
lines, sampled guitars. A bit broken beat, but with an overall more rock
then techno sound. Groovy stuff indeed here. The album is named after Sem
Peterson, 'the smartest swedish racing driver, the so called "King Of
Drift". King of drift... that might be appropiate for this CD too. There is
a great drift on this CD - it's a fine race in music going on here. Hats
off. (FdW)
