We don’t quite know what to make of Swedish band The Soundtrack of Our Lives. We can’t stop listening to (some) the songs on their MySpace, but if we start to think about it, it makes us first feel old then we have flashbacks of our quasi hippie/crunchy college phase and it makes us a little depressed. Then we listen to Flipside for the 10th time today and we just stop thinking and enjoy the music.

The Soundtrack of Our Lives is an alternative rock band which formed in 1995 in Göteborg, Sweden. Most of the band’s members were formerly members of the influential Swedish punk band Union Carbide Productions.

The band had three very successful records in Sweden before their critically acclaimed breakthrough US release in 2001, Behind the Music, which was nominated for the Best Alternative Album award at the 2003 Grammy Awards.

Led by singer Ebbot Lundberg, they are a combination of sixties rock giants like The Who and The Doors, and seventies psychedelic bands like Pink Floyd. Their music is epic, bombastic, and energetic.

Check out their official site for tour dates, media, and lots of links to find more info on the band elsewhere online. Don’t forget to check them out on MySpace, where you can listen to Flipside over and over again. It’s insane.
