Artists: Love In October
They say modern day Renaissance folk are simply multi-talented. For Love in October, The Musik Group's Minneapolis-based movers and shakers, they transcend what it means to have their fingers in a little bit of everything. Their debut full-length, Pontus, The Devil, and Me, released January 22, 2008, and showcases LiO's ability to diversify all the subgenres found in pop.
In the year since the band's formation, they've had their music video played on mtvU, performed live on JBTV in Chicago and on Fearless TV in NYC, played four major music conferences, and opened an MTV Summer Concert at Six Flags Great America, all while touring the country and producing short films on the side.
Native Swedish brothers, Erik and Kent Widman, formed LiO in the summer of 2006 and quickly released a snappy six-song EP recorded by Ed Rose, which went on to receive national radio airplay and glowing reviews. The name of the debut full-length album, Pontus, The Devil, and Me, was chosen to reflect the schizophrenic nature of the songs. A myriad of songs comprise the album, from poppy tracks about growing up in Sweden ("Circa 1989") to a chaotic instrumental melody of thought ("An Average Idea") to an ode to vagabond lovers ("Song 11"). The track "Vi Gar till Stranden" is completely in Swedish - a first for the band.
With Pontus, The Devil, and Me, LiO has painted the picture of life complete with love, sadness and the awkwardness that falls between. |
