Release Notes:
Mainliners are back. After their praised record
release, Bring On The Sweetlife, on Get Hip
Recordings (US) with following US- and European
tours theyÆre now back and ready to strike with a
second smashing album. Mainliners combine the raw
rock of MC5 with the cocky attitude of Hives,
adding a touch Swedish pop. Their front man Robert
Billing has a well respected reputation for his
powerful and charismatic voice. Robert is backed by
furious guitars, steady beats, popish quires and
partly even by harmonium bows.
The MainlinerÆs self-titled album contains ten
varying but inter-twining songs. Ranging from Is
This Satisfying with feedback, distorted guitar
riffs and catchy pop melodies, to Round Five with
driving bass and distinctive guitar chords to
SaintÆs March In The Sunrise with itÆs warmth and
soulfulness. Plus thereÆs much, much moreà The
Mainliners wonÆt let you down!
It all started a few years ago in some dirty little
industrial town somewhere in the middle of Sweden.
Four guys with attitude got fed up with the lack of
something to do. These youngsters' frustration led
to the creation of a new musical group, a group
that soon was to be named The Mainliners. With the
members' similar sources of inspiration it just
couldn't be anything else but some kind of garage
rock & roll music screaming out of those amps after
a few rehearsals.
Today Mainliners are a sextet. TheyÆve toured the
States and Europe. TheyÆve released records on
Crusher Records, Get Hip Recordings and Human
Bretzel. Their music has grown, grown from the more
primitive garage music to a more modern and refined
pop and rock music. TheyÆve still got the attitude,
theyÆve got the confidence and theyÆre back with a
new smashing album. Mainliners are back, and
theyÆre here to stay!
