The Raveonettes Sune Rose Wagner goes Solo!

Sune Rose Wagner, one half of the Raveonettes, has made a solo album titled Sune Rose Wagner and it is amazing! Take a listen!

Sune Rose Wagner Solo

I do not understand a single word because the album is in Danish but that doesn't stop my love of his surfer rock sound. Think Beach Boys and Dick Dale with a dark twist.

Here is the track listing for Wagner's solo album:

1. “Hvad Der Sker”
2. “Et Underfuldt Liv”
3. “Afgrunden”
4. “Altid”
5. “Tyskerpiger”
6. “Samme Vej”
7. “Svinske Mænd”
8. “Gi' Mig en Pige”
9. “Beruset og Forhadt”
10. “Din Mund”

My personal favs are “Gi' Mig en Pige” and “Altid.”

In an interview, when asked if all of the songs on the album are about lust in some way, Wagner said of the Raveonette's most current album Lust Lust Lust, "Yeah, they are. Most of the album really is lusting after the unknown. Lusting after things you can’t get. It’s sort of like you want everything all at once. And sometimes you can’t have that. Sometimes you’ve got to choose, and that’s a hard thing.

Does that not sum up our lives or what!? We are all lusting after so many different things yet we can't do everything. Katie, you just posted a blog about picking and choosing your passions in life! Check out the Raveonettes! Especially if you like Christmas music because they have some pretty bomb Christmas songs!

Enjoy!
