captainaldous Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Can anyone help me pronounce this bands name? Hahaha. Was telling my friend about it and butchered it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runforcover Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Mock-Thaver-Skan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apeman Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 I have a hard time finding one single English word to translate their name into, when asked about it. Makthaver = a person in a position of power. Makthaverskan = a woman in that position. But that pronunciation above is probably as close as you will get, without Swedish being your native language. I would do it with a slight twist, Mockt-Haver-Skan, but then again, I am Danish, so my take on Swedish can be a bit off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhulud Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 I am loving this. I'm a sucker for this type of shoegaze-y dream pop. Reminds me a lot of The Sundays which is a band I absolutely adore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Us Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 I hardly can't believe how good this album is.Those melodies are hard to resist.Initially I've planned to wait for the RFC repress but picked up a copy on Luxury Rec. recently.Nevertheless going to buy the RFC version too.

troymess Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 This release has me hooked. "Asleep" is one of the catchiest songs I've heard this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
