Off last year's beautiful Legao album, I've fallen in love with "Bad Guy Now", a song in which Erlend Øye sings about how we cruellly manipulate other people, as seen from different points of view. For the album he armed himself with the Icelandic reggae band Hjalmar as backing musicians, who on this particular song proves they can perform sunny-sounding, Californian-style west coast pop equally good. The melody is of course killer, as Øye really has a knack for those. If anyone can pick a great tune out of a hat, it's definitely him.
