hell on wheels is a three piece outfit from oxelosund in sweden. this song is one of my favourites. how is sweden's best live band in their genre (weird-nothing-like-it-pop).
from there is a generation of handicapped people to carry on (nons nonslp 78), available on CD
why can't primal scream do a record with songs like this one? organ drenched with girls chanting ye-ye-yeah! dance 'til you drop! some might say that primal scream peaked with screamadelica, i say hell no! even if screamadelica is a great record, possibly one of the hundred best albums from the last century...
i once met these guys at a festival. we discussed belle & sebastian and they went 'let stuart sing his songs and kick the looper-man out of the group as well as that gentle waves-chick' i don't remember my reply... legal man is a perfect example of belle & sebastian as a group i think. the fact that i like sitar and the tempo makes me like it even more.

20 Feb 02 ·delicado: Although I have most of their records, I'd never heard this track before, and it really surprised me. It sounds almost like a vintage organ/sitar instrumental, but then the drumming gives it kind of a stone roses feel. Interesting stuff!
man i do like rock'n'roll. never thought about it. well what we have here is a supreme live band from sweden. sprung out of the super rockers union carbide productions. they had one hit in 96 ('instant repeater 99'), this one's the best they've done since then.

The singer Ebbott was once desperately looking for an after party at his hotel. He heard some noise that sounded like a party and looked and looked and looked... and found an ice machine.
