Popping The Question.
“During the extras set Katzenjammer stop and say: “Benedicte, someone wants to ask you something”. Then they play Benedicte´s favourite song while Synnøve gets down on her knee” (via Race The Sun)
Ssh, You’re Scaring The Fish Likes Katzenjammer!
This is from a blog called “Hysj, Du Skremmer Fisken”:
“..katzenjammer har kommet med nytt album. det heter a kiss before you go og har så mye vidunderlig groovy lykkemusikk på seg at jeg ikke klarer å la være å smile; for eksempel when the laughter’s gone. den har en musikkvideo [..} som gir meg så lyst til å danse at jeg vurderer å ta av meg øretelefonene og la lyden strømme omkring i leiligheten, til tross for at det vil gjøre naboene rimelig irriterte. melis og rytmer og relasjoner og kjøkkenredskaper og farger og en horde av forskjellige instrumenter - jentene i denne gruppen er så nydelige at det ikke skulle vært lov, og jeg er helt knust for at jeg ikke hadde råd til å se dem spille på sentrum scene i går kveld - de er en sensasjon live, og gir adrenalinkick og lykkerus til tusen.”
Thank you, HysjDuSkremmerFisken.

“Aber Mann, diese Girls können auf allen Weltmeeren der Musik segeln. Da ist man gerne einer von den Bräutigams, den die Mädels sicher in jedem Hafen haben. Und den Abschiedskuss nimmt man gerne in Kauf. Denn diese Girls sind purer Fun, wann immer man ihnen begegnet.”

Putting Katzenjammer In Their Place.
This is local news reporting at its local-est: “Katzenjammer - with band members from Eiksmarka and Haslum, are coming out with a new album”, writes Asker Og Bærum Budstikke.
And in case you are wondering: Marianne is the Eiksmarking, Solveig is the … Hasling? Haslummer? Haslumian?
캣천재머!
캣천재머-friend Alice Jung has an excellent blog about the band - in Korean. 마리안나, 솔바익 , 안나-마리트 and 투리드 love this, and think they were probably born to be awesome anime super-heroines. KAETCHEONJAEMEO!
The Cutest Music Critics In The World.
Just… aaaaaaw!
Professional Knee-Capper And / Or Small Timpanist.
Solveig was tasked by motor.de with drawing the answers to all their questions on a piece of paper.
This is “What did you want to grow up to be when you were little?”:
As far as we can tell, Sol wanted to grow up to be either a) someone who performs eye surgery with an egg beater, b) a small timpanist, c) someone who knee-caps people for a living, with scissors, d) a fish photographer with duck feet, or e) an underwater puppeteer with one happy and one very angry doll.
Maybe this music career thing is worth sticking with.
The rest of Solveig´s drawings are here.
