The Livelong June about Brian Molko and Placebo

Benny I’ve been fascinated by your timbre of voice, which clearly reminds me to Brian Molko, while Placebo also is one of your sources of inspiration. What can you say about the production of the vocals and what makes Placebo so special to you?

Benny: We wanted the vocals to sound like they had been run through an old gritty amp. We wanted a dirty and distorted sound to give the music that extra aggressive flavour. I’m really pleased in the way we managed to achieve what we aimed for. And yes, Placebo is a huge influence and so are a handful of other bands that write about every aspect of being alive. We feel intrigued by that and it inspires us to write about other things than the birds and the bees. The pains and struggles in life are much more interesting.

Benny Gustavsson and Marcus Rejnevik set up The Livelong June in 2013.
Their debut album has been released on the Russian label ScentAir Records revealing a terrific mix between electronics, pop and rock music. It sounds pretty indie-like featuring vocals reminiscent of Placebo’s front man Brian Molko.
“The Art Of Living” is a real great surprise and definitely an album, which will for sure become one of my 2018 favorites. I got in touch with the Swedish duo to get more information about this astonishing debut work.

Do you already know The Livelong June?
I listened to their songs and I like the music, over all the 'Molko'-voice a lot.
