With their metal influenced punk rock and their enormous drive, Browsing Collection have brought salvation to their audience on stages all over Sweden and while touring South Korea. They are Sweden’s toughest, tightest musical bitchslap and ever since they started playing in 2008 they have decided to keep the control of releasing their music to themselves and instead build their own team, currently including publisher Icons Creating Evil Art, a couple of distributors (physical and digital) and several PR teams.
The band explains: ”When we released our debut album ‘Greetings From Wonderland’ in 2015, we recorded and mixed everything ourselves. Even if we are really satisfied with how it turned out, we can still feel that we didn’t manage to create a connection between the more genre diverse tracks. Maybe we were not as detailed in set-up and production as we have been this time. Some of the songs we released back then was written when we were like eleven and fourteen years old, and it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that our song writing has changed in ten years.”
Browsing Collection now releases their EP ‘Don’t Want To Dance’, still on their own label but this time with a heavier and tighter sound than ever before.
Speaking of the album, the band says: ”This record is very true to who we are and it feels like we finally have found ourselves in our sound this time. The songs have everything, from catchy choruses to heavy guitar riffs. We don’t want to limit ourselves, so if we like a song we make it a part of the album. For I Don’t Want To Dance, we picked the best parts of everything but we still feel that it turned out as something pretty coherent. We are very pleased with every track; they all tell their own story but are connected in a coherent theme. We have also become better at prioritising among our work. For the previous record we had chosen 12 tracks, where we had different opinions on some of them. This time we have chosen 6 songs that all of us believe in and like fully, we hope and believe that our listeners will notice that!”
Don’t Want To Dance is released October 26 via Ditto Music in collaboration with Icons Creating Evil Art
