Friends Unseen were a five-piece emo/indie band from Umeå, Sweden that released a single two-song 7" in 1998 via Subjugation Records. Other than that what's included with this record, there's really no other information out there on them. One of their members was also in Separation and The International (Noise) Conspiracy, but those are far cries from the sound heard here. These two tracks are slightly overdriven, lo-fi and melancholic, with impeccable vocals. You guys are going to love this, that's all I have to say to implore you to give this a listen. Enjoy.

I didn't think these blogs were still being used. Thanks for keeping this place alive. Do you have Twitter? you seem like a great person.
ReplyDeleteGreat band. I had never heard them before. Reminds me a bit of Triple Crown. They had Jesse Wickman from Nuisance/Blind Spot/Edaline drumming for them. I set up a show for them in Rapid City, SD ages ago. They have one CD that unfortunately doesn't seem to be on Discogs or anywhere else for that matter.
