Acid House Kings

After the breakup of their band Poprace, singer/guitarist Niklas Angergård and his brother, bassist Johan, joined up with guitarist Joakim Ödlund and formed the Swedish twee pop trio Acid House Kings in 1991. Initially inspired by their shared disappointment over the breakup of Felt and common dissatisfaction with Morrissey's Kill Uncle album, the trio began crafting an innocent and simple brand of pop. Ödlund left the band in the late '90s and Julia Lannerheim, who had sung background vocals on 1997’s Advantage Acid House Kings, joined. The trio next surfaced in 2002 with a new album, followed three years later by Sing Along with Acid House Kings. Music Sounds Better with You arrived in March of 2011. ~ Jason Ankeny & Tim Sendra
