The two women that are hiding behind the name Montys Loco have been playing music for over 10 years together. Accordingly to themselves Björn Yttling, who is the producer of these 10 songs, has shown them a new pathway to walk on. And the walk they walk is good. Really good.The music that gets delivered by these two ladies is small pop songs with big words. It’s smart, funny and at the same time so distinct and honest with a sexy edge to it that makes you want to dance your ass off occasionally.
On “Man Overboard” Anja Bigrells voice sound harsh and elegant at the same time. It reminds me of Anna Ternheim and Karin Dreijer mixed with Victoria Bergsman from The Concretes, at the same time. The spacious keyboard and organ sounds mixed together with the earthly touch of an acoustic guitar creates a Phil Spector vibe that is hard to not like.
It’s a record that at first comes off as nothing special, but just as a seed takes its time to blossom into a wild colourful lovely flower.
“Try to push it” will easily be on my top 10 list of the best songs of 2006.
Listen to some songs from “Man Overboard”.

Ja visst är dom bra. En riktigt liten pärla som jag bara kom över utav en slump. Jag är bara glad att få sprida melodierna vidare.
