I would like to say that Maja Ivarsson and the Sounds are excellent. I think that they are good but I have heard this before. The music is what dance punk should sound like: up tempo, intense and of course- loud and in your face. Is Ivarsson like Pat Benetar? No. She is more like Dale Bozio (except Ivarsson can sing), the girls from The Raincoats, Bush Tetras, and Deborah Harry. Ivarsson's ripping vocals bring back the old women punk rockers who were constantly played on college radio stations across the country. Queen of apologies is a perfect example. The energy of that song will make teens close their bedroom doors and dance until the ceiling caves in. Turn it up and have fun.
