You had to look very hard for a badreview of This Is Deadheads First Album (It Includes ElectricGuitars). Metal Hammer, Rock Hard, Rocks, Classic Rock - they allloved the Deadheads own brand of Boogie Punk (that´s what they callit themselves). Guitarist/singer Manne Olander finds a simpleexplanation for the Deadheads being everybody´s darling at themoment: "People that really enjoy and understand good music alwaysfind something they like in different kinds of musical genres. Goodmusic is good music. We just play rock n roll. I don´t think youhave to play metal to get metalheads to like your music. I knowmany bands that have a metal tag attached to them but they soundmore like punk, classic rock or pop rather than metal. But I mean,who really cares!? Tell me a true punk who doesn´t like Motorheador Venom? That´s the right sentiment, no doubt. We are verygrateful for all the kind words. It´s always flattering to get thiskind of feedback, summarizes Manne Olander the overwhelminglypositive reactions to their debut album. Which in turn of coursemeans, that expectations for album number two will be extremelyhigh indeed. The Swedes do not seem to be too bothered with that:That´s out of our hands. We know that we have put together a greatalbum so our part is done. We appreciate that people take time andlisten to our music, that´s all we can ask for. The album is calledLoadead because its filled with hits. Manne Olander explains thisnice little play on words: The story goes that Lou Reed made analbum with Velvet Underground (many years ago) called Loaded,because it was filled with hits. Deadheads made a second albumfilled with Deadheads hits, and to my ears it sounds like it shouldbe named Loadead. Makes sense, doesn´t it? Although the Deadheadsmight be the masters of understatement, Manne Olander is secretlyquite proud of what he has achieved in this very short period oftime: We don´t practice rocket science or claim to have invented anew genre but we know what we are doing. Both albums have beenrecorded live in the studio, to get the vibe we think rock music issupposed to sound like. We recorded Loadead with all musiciansplaying their respective instruments together in one room, nobodywas wearing any headphones. That really gave the whole album theright vibe. Those two albums are no accidents at all. We work hardon the songwriting to get the songs and the sound we like. On herethere is a lot of fuzz and distortion, for example on a number likeThere´s A Hole In The Sky… Who doesn´t like fuzz?, asks ManneOlander. In fact it´s mainly just overdriven tube amps but weworked on the sounds a bit more on this album. Out of Here, on theother hand, is a really straight-forward number. Would it annoy theDeadheads if people start comparing them to the Hellacopters,Gluecifer and Turbo Negro? Not at all, states Manne. We often hearthat people compare us to the nineties action rock scene and wedon´t mind at all. We love Turbonegro, New Bomb Turks, FlamingSideburns, Hellacopters, Gluecifer, Gaza Strippers, Supersuckers,Nashville Pussy, The Nomads, Sator etc. We grew up with these bandsand we are proudly keeping it alive, man! Empty Howls is one of theslower, one of the more laid-back numbers on the album,highlighting the other side of Deadheads. Manne Olander agrees:Yes, this is one of the darker, more bluesier songs. I don´t got somuch to tell you about it other than it´s heavily inspired by theearly days of Fleetwood Mac. Songs like The Green Manalishi, DragonFly and Purple Dancer made a big impression on this song. I had ahard time falling asleep for quite some time. I sat down in myliving room one night and wrote down some words that came up.Suddenly Fleetwood Mac came to my mind and I started toread/write/play and listen to some of their songs. Let Loose TheFool sounds almost like classic proto punk rock to me, along thelines of the Dead Boys, Dictators, Johnny Thunders, New York Dolls- sort of New York circa 1976… Spot on!, exclaims Manne Olander.It´s a classic rock riff with an energetic punk attitude. We hadthe idea of putting some saxophone on this song. We got heavilyinspired by the Iggy Pop and James Williamsson record Kill City andthe New Bomb Turks record At Rope´s End. Great albums.
