think small

08 September 2008


Fewer girls, but still a band. And, quite probably, still as much summer and as much fun. All Girl Summer Fun Band. After a four-year hiatus, during which Ari Douangpanya gave birth to a son and, consequently, left the band, they are back with a new album, to appear later this month on their own AGSFB label. I’ve always had a weak spot for the band, as their songs are generally sweet, happy and, well, just that really. They are also one of the few indiepop bands that played The Netherlands: they did three shows there in 2004. I never really thought that other Dutch people would like them as much as I did, so I felt a bit awkward about the whole thing, especially since I could only go to one of the shows. But people turned up at all three of them and the one I saw was really good; the band members were nice and friendly and all that too. I have yet to hear a song of the new album, but mp3 blogg (one can’t have enough Icelandic blogs in one’s RSS reader) posted some older songs, which I thought too nice a thing not to link to.
