10 Albums – Felix Rodriguez of The Sounds

The Sounds

Known for their catchy tunes and infectious guitar riffs, The Sounds are tearing up the music scene on a global scale. Instead of rising to the top through scandalous gossip and outlandish statements, the Swedish quintet is doing it by album. Dying To Say This To You was a teasing yet pure rock n’ roll dance party while their latest release, Crossing The Rubicon, is a nostalgically gratifying trip to the 80s’ and back. Such proclaimed success may be a bold statement, but The Sounds have the swagger and skill to back it up.

Here’s guitarist Felix Rodriguez’s list of…

When I heard “Can’t Truss It”, I had to know more about them because I liked rap before, but this took it to another level.

They had it all: the songs, the attitude, the lyrics, you name it.

The songs are all written by Bjorn and Benny from ABBA so that’s maybe why it’s so catchy.

I know all their albums in my sleep but it was The Black Album that opened my eyes and made me a Metallica fan.

I was totally a Suede fan. They were my idols at that time and I wanted to look like them and play like them.

When they released this album it was the coolest shit because it combined electronic/techno with totally f*cked up rock parts and insane lyrics.

 

Scotch - Evolution

This album is NUTS!!! It has a song called “Disco Band” and it starts with a dude coughing to the beat of some drums.
