Oh heavens! We have a new desktop available for download in the junk section! It's a smorgasbord for your eyes. If you use this magic desktop all your friends will go "Ooo…you are like the coolest person in this room" and you can be like, "I know, that's why they call me 'the boss man.'" This quote applies to both males and females. Enjoy the present and remember, the CD is out next week! 

We traveled out to sunny Los Angeles this past weekend to shoot a music video for "Petrula the Destroyer." We were greeted by the locals as heroes from the north who would free them from their LA glam rock and tight spandex pants. We told them that we were here to shoot a video and that their spandex problems would have to wait until next visit. The surfers were pissed. After a couple of bus and train rides we met up with director Behn Fannin (The Melvins, Nurses) who treated us kindly and took us under his wings (he is half man, half Falcon). We spent two days performing various acrobatic stunts and wrestling with tigers. He even made us jump 3 school busses on a moped…all for the sake of making the best music video ever! I am 132% confident that we accomplished this. I mean, have you ever seen a music video with moped jumping, tiger wrestling, and acrobatics?

Aside from the grueling physical acting and slap stick comedy, we met some really nice people who partook in the video in various degrees. They were super swell, and we give them our eternal thanks. Los Angeles cried as we were leaving, as did we…for we knew we would be leaving 70 degree weather and palm trees for 6 degree temperatures and 2 feet of snow. Oh, Minneapolis…you are such a cruel prankster. Why am I part of your sick and twisted joke?…Anyway, you can expect the best video ever to come out sometime mid-February. Until then you'll have to be satisfied with some of these still images from the shoot.

We are happy to announce our latest music video endeavor in collaboration with the very talented Lindsey Testolin. Prepare yourself for a jittery, jelloish pixel matrix of great labor. The video is a fast-paced piece that tells a story of finding oneself, fighting the nine-to-five lifestyle, and dealing with schizophrenia...all in one minute and fifty seconds. Check it out in the music video section.

We have added a new section to the website which contains white papers, academic in nature, written on a variety of topics for your intellectual stimulation. Read up!

In the spirit of the holiday, we here at LiO headquarters would like to say that we are thankful for having such wonderfully devoted fans! Our Thanksgiving gift to you is a brand new video, titled "Death in October." Click on over to the video section to check it out!

We are excited to share information on our upcoming album: Pontus, The Devil and Me will be released worldwide on January 22nd. The album is a schizophrenic collection of songs from poppy tracks about growing up in Sweden ("Circa 1989") to a chaotic instrumental melody of thought ("An Average Idea") to an ode to vagabond lovers ("Song 11") with everything falling between. We think you're in for a treat!

Track listing:
1. Circa 1989
2. A Day in the Life Of
3. I Dream of Marie Antoinette
4. Find Me Sunshine
5. Method to Madness
6. Oh, the Truth
7. Viva la Revolución
8. Vi Går till Stranden
9. An Average Idea
10.Petrula the Destroyer
11.Song Eleven

With the new sound also comes an evolution in our members that we believe completes the perfect Love in October outfit. Joining the same ol' Erik and Kent are Charlie Abbott on guitar and Chresten Hyde on drums. We have already begun work on several new songs together, and it has been magical. We cannot wait to share the new sound and energy with you when we head on tour in February. More to come very soon!

We received some nice words from Doug Brod (Spin) and Perry Farrell (Jane's Addiction, Satellite Party, Lollapalooza).
