| Introduction | Cairo, Athens, Carthage, Rome, Constantinople, Lisbon, Madrid, Paris, Amsterdam, London, Berlin >>> The idea that Europe's cultural epicenter is moving north against the actual southerly exodus is hard to buy. Yet still, the fact that small scandanavian nations resist angloamerican cultural hegemony is really something. In all probability the 21st century belongs to the Vikings. However, all kidding aside, the multi-culti concept is emerging: Friska Viljor, Maria Timm, die Shout Out Louds, Johnossi, The Broken Beats, Nervous Nellie - and emerging in new forms. Kristina Kristoffersen lends the Danish/America/German/Russian conglomerate SPURV LÆRKE this smile, that only scanadavian bands have, that sparks, flashes and glitters as if there were no yesterday. Only a fool would object. Fairytales on the brink of the big otter, presented dancing innocently under discoballs as if there were no tomorrow are peddled to critics and naysayers. And there in the North, between yesterday and tomorrow, blossom the stories of girlhood, of Cinderella's shrink (who turns out to be a stalker) and other virtues. |
