Now begins our glorious Norwegian winter. Casa Murilo is almost 1 year old and as usual good things are happening.
First off, let´s get some links out of the way. Here is a video of our show at Revolver for the good folks at Operation Dagsverk, a charidee that organises a paid day at work for young people who then donate the money to a cause of "OD"s choosing. All very groovy I´m sure you´ll agree.
A medium to big size deal for your friendly neighbourhood superstars Casa Murilo is this week´s release of the "Oslo! 2" compilation on Spoon Train Audio records, a compilation of bands from Oslo. We at Casa Murilo HQ are proselytic subscribers to the theory that a rising tide lifts all ships, i.e. that what is good for us is good for the "Oslo Indie Scene" and vice versa. I´m not convinced that there is an "Oslo Indie Scene" as such, there´s not much to unify the bands on the record, but if there isn´t a scene then one must be defined ant categorised etc before it can be said to exist. Which is surely the point of the CD. Anyway, it´s good and we´re very happy to be involved.
Reviews of Oslo 2 are here (NO), here and here (both ENG).
The Waldemar Thranes Debacle (or "debarcle" - bloody southerners) has picked up another nice review and we might be getting some local radio play in Brighton of all places. Which is very nice.
In other news, gig Friday 20th November at Samfunnet, Bislett with
JKD & The One-Egged Bastards (JKD is a rapper and he will have a band numbering somewhere around 10. Yes really) and another gig at Chateau Neuf on the 27th with Motorgruppa
We´re also writing some new material at the moment. Obviously it´s amazing.
Loveyoubye
