Mando Diao

[Yppe]

I recently bought the first album of this swedish band because I saw them on the TV when they acted in the Benicassim festival , and I really liked their songs. Now that I've listened to the whole CD (Bring 'em in), all that I can say is that I love every song in it, and I can't wait to buy the second album ( Hurricane bar).
What do you think of this band?

They acted very arrogant on stage. There's one song that makes me unable to sit or stand still, Sheepdog I think, but that's where it ends.

 

[Yppe]

Yeah, that's what I've heard. A friend of mine that saw them at Benicassim say that they are very arrogant, like "Look, we're rock stars, we're much better than you and you are all dying to listen to us".

I love Sheepdog, that song is very catchy.

 

[iperlchen]

It was like Grease Lightning, but rather pathetic

 

[Cosette]

I've only really heard God Knows and it's definitely catchy. I just put it on to remind me of it... Meh... I don't find them to be anything special.

 

[MissAnia]

Yeah, I've also heard that they behave like a BIG rock stars.... That sucks...

They're from my hometown so I've seen them in school all my life. I think their music is ok, and I bought their first album because, well, I've been in kindergarten with one of them. I'm absolutely not crazy about them though.

I adore their music and I saw them at the hurricane festival ... in november I am going to see them in hamburg

it sucks that they're arrogant, but i do really like thier music. i love P.U.S.A, to China with love and Motown Blood. i've only heard thier album bring it in, but my friend and i are having a listening party next week.

 

[Yppe]

I saw them yesterday, and it was a great concert, much better than I expected (from ehat I had heard I thought thatit would lastjst 1 hour but it was much longer) And they were quite arrogant yes, but they also got on well with the audience and were saying thank you all the time.

Thaks for these pictures! They're lovely!

I'm seeing them again this summer!! Last month I saw and met Sugarplum Fairy (gustaf's younger brothers band) and they are at all as good as Mando, but it was cool.

 

[fairy]

oh coolio! i really enjoyed them here last summer! Sugarplum Fairy played too but i didnt see them!

i saw them last week, haha it was crazy!
they're actually good, but a little bit overhyped
btw.. i didn't think they seemed arrogant on stage, he dedicated a song to our city.. last time they were here the floor broke, hehe.
