Def Vackra Livet - Viljan (Dan Lissvik remix)

While the US fans who have been snubbed of The Mary Onettes tour last Spring due to a certain temperamental Icelandic volcano, can get some consolation on the fact that they have new material.  Well, not quite but close.  Philip and Henrik Ekström of The Mary Onettes have a new band called Det Vackra Livet (The Beautiful Life).  Sung entirely in Swedish, it is essentially The Mary Onettes but more pensive and vulnerable (and you thought that wasn’t possible) because they can truly, really express what they feel even more in their native tongue.  Even if you don’t understand what P. Ekström is singing about, the aching pathos in his voice will stir the emotions.

Det Vackra Livet’s self titled debut album comes out on May on Labrador Records.  Fellow Gothenburg resident, Studio’s Dan Lissvik has remixed their first single, "Viljan" (willingness) with Balearic Beat flair, giving the Ekström brother’s first single fit for dance clubs.
