Bio:

Swedish Groove Rockers Honeymoon Disease are ready to release their upcoming studio album “The Transcendence” on November 20th, 2015 via Napalm Records! “The Transcendence” will be a real pleasure for fans of rockers such as KISS, Rainbow, Thin Lizzy, Led Zeppelin & Deep Purple! To get the full live experience check out their upcoming tour dates together with mighty Avatarium and The Vintage Caravan!Anyway, before you get carried away down a rather disgusting path, it’s best to make sure you have the right Honeymoon Disease. Allow us to explain. You see, put in Honeymoon Disease into a search engine and you don’t get rock n roll, you get, urmmm, something else: “Honeymoon cystitis (or “honeymoon disease”) is cystitis caused by sexual activity. The symptoms are the same as with cystitis triggered by something other than sex: burning sensation when peeing as well as the frequent urge to go to the bathroom.” Says Wiki. Good to know. Good job this half of MVM isn’t married, too. Such things make us blush.That out of the way, and the word “band” added to all future searches, this particular Honeymoon Disease are a four piece out of Gothenburg. Two men and two women, and Swedish? Shall we mention ABBA now or shall we wait until later?Thank Christ HD have nothing in common with the world’s shitest band (the ladies have better tattoos for a start) and actually have much more to do with fellow countrymen The Hellacopters. That’s not though, immediately clear from the start. The opening “Higher” doesn’t sound too dissimilar from something Ghost might try if they had a female singer, but pretty soon after that “The Transcendence” finds its groove and the band find their true voice.A look at the cover photo tells you what they want to be. It’s a knowing glance to the 1970s. There’s great moustaches (this is the male half) and you aren’t too sure if it’s all a bit of a piss take. Even the merest, most cursory listen to the album however and you are totally certain. This is a record that the people that make it are absolutely cherishing.There’s nothing fake about Honeymoon Disease whatsoever. “Imperial Mind” is ebullient, catchy and as happy as a kid on Christmas morning after Father Christmas has been – although what Santa’s sack has in store for this band in December probably isn’t worth thinking about. “Gotta Move” adds a slightly funkier baseline and an even catchier chorus. In fact, the thought abounds that if you are going to get dumped then this should be the damn soundtrack. You can imagine it being a Thin Lizzy track, and a good one at that.The brilliant songs just keep coming by now. “You’re Too Late” is a less than two and half minute barroom boogie, but it’s incessantly superb and if the consequences of all the hedonism are “Breakup” then you’ll take the chance.“Fast Love” (and no one actually believes it’s about a car as the lyrics claim) manages to be dirtier than than its title suggests – and when Jenna sings that “this is gonna get wild” you want to join in.The Transcendence concludes with “Keep Me Spinning” which, after borrowing the opening chords of Aerosmith’s “Mama Kin”, gets retro bonus points for a swirling Hammond Organ and is rather more ambitious in tone than some of its brethren, even going for an explore of something approaching a jam at the end.It’s getting close to party season (apparently) and if you must be festive you could do worse than have this as your album of choice as you get drunk and try and pull some girl that’s out of your league at the works Christmas do. Failing that, if you intend to stay in being miserable like MVM, use “The Transcendence” to cheer yourself up.It’s so good it’ll do the job.

Album:

Back in the winter of 2015 MV reviewed the debut album of Swedish four piece, Honeymoon Disease. Upon finding that the name came from “cystitis caused by sexual activity” MV pronounced that the record was “catchier than a STI and a lot more fun”.Anyway, two years as near as dammit have passed since and HD are back, with a new label and a (slightly) new outlook.Don’t worry, they are still as rock n roll as can be – look at the cover for goodness sake – but this time there is a lot more soul in proceedings.Working with producer Ola Ersfjord, who has worked with MV faves including Imperial State Electric and Dead Lord, they apparently discovered a mutual love of old soul and this has most definitely infused album number two.“Part Human, Mostly Beast” lays its cards down on the table straight away and in the brilliantly ebullient “Doin’ It Again” it has a winning hand. “Only Thing Alive” sees singer Jenna positively relish the fact she’s “about to be locked up and never released” and any song that sounds this much like Thin Lizzy cannot be bad.To be fair, though, they are merely just getting started. “Tail Twister” is horny, that is to say it is full of horns, but it fair old drips with sass.They can get bluesy when they want too. “Rymdvals” occupies some shadowy landscape, but does allow Jenna’s fine voice to come to the fore, while “Needle In your Eye” occupies some mid-paced type of Imperial State Electric space.The band are at their best, however, when the handbrake is off and they are looking for all kinds of trouble, like they are on the quite brilliant “Fly Bird, Fly High” which is so turbo charged it makes Chuck Berry’s “Promised Land” look like a lot of fuss about nothing, or “Calling You”, which might start with some strange sounds, but is soon only headed for the fast lane.“Four Stroke Woman”, rather like “Fast Love” on their debut album manages to take the car as a metaphor for something altogether dirtier as guitarist Acid (we’ll assume this isn’t his real name) heads off on a lightning trip.Not that all of this is a million miles an hour. “Night By Night” chugs in – what is for this record – a restrained manner, “It’s Alright” gets all southern rock on you, “Coal Burnin’” takes the mighty bass groove from “Fortunate Son” as its starting point, with the four string of Cedric to the fore, while the lead single from the album, “Electric Eel”, ends things with a glorious hook and something beyond a carefree air – particularly in its closing guitar solo.That rock n roll can still sound this much fun – and so downright dangerous – in 2017 is no mean feat. Honeymoon Disease always seemed like they were on course to make this happen. Only this time they’ve been able to marry other elements too. “Part Human, Mostly Beast” is sweaty, gyrating fun and that was probably always the aim.
