Real Ones

Though it sometimes gets overlooked, it’s hard to argue with Norway’s depth of talent with regards to music. In the extremely bleak landscaping of black steel towards the warm moods of electronica, towards the more pure, organic components of folk and rock and roll, Norway has everything. Because the early ’90s, the greater accessible from the designs and styles — in other words electronica and rock and roll — have become and developed in a astonishing rate, giving the planet such illustrious brands as Royskopp, Annie, as well as the Kings of Comfort. Within the last, dying many years of the 20th hundred years, another name was put into an already amazing list, that of Bergen’s the true Types. Coupling the near psychedelic scenery of their nationwide musical brethren in the above list with retro rock and roll like the Music group as well as the blissed out noises of Flaming Lip area, the group released a string of infectious, catchy, and well received — critically and commercially — series of their particular make of folk-pop you start with THAT IS Camping in 2003. Having currently toured a lot of European countries and THE UNITED STATES, the group’s debut were able to additional their currently ascendant popularity. In 2005, the true Types released their following record, Home with girls each day, which would continue to earn them a melody of the entire year nomination (for the one “Ballad of a vintage Man”) along with a By:Larm Prize. The following calendar year, the trippy, folksy, Norwegians — Ivar Vogt (vocals, guitars, mandolins), Jorgen Sandvik (vocals, guitars, sitar, banjo), David Vogt (vocals, guitars, violin), Oystein Skjaelaaen (bass), and Kare Opheim (drums) — surely got to visit the outrageous, chaotic South by Southwest Festival in Austin, TX. With restored momentum on the side, the true Ones came back to Norway to focus on recording three, All for a nearby, which was to become released in 2008 on Warner. That yr — 2008 — would also start to see the Real Ones launch their 1st U.K. solitary, “Outlaw.”
