Info recogida en ViceRecords y Download.com :

This Oslo outfit's absorbing material could easily find a home in the electro-ambient realm, what with its gleaming multitracked drones and valiant use of vintage keyboards. But the propulsive beats smack of wider ambitions: listen with headphones, sure, but move those feet.

120 Days had its first rehearsal autumn 2001 in their small hometown, Kristiansund, on the northwest coast of Norway. The band consisted of the four 19 year old friends Jonas Dahl, Arne Kvalvik, Kjetil Ovesen and Adne Meisfjord. They called themselves The Beautiful People.

Not much could happen in Kristiansund, where the bars are full of cover bands if they played music at all. They would have to move to Oslo to on the map. Yet with Oslo being recently rated the most expensive city on earth, they knew they would be able to afford a place to live. So they found the perfect solution: they bought a used motor home, drove to Oslo, parked it in the street, and lived in it and played in it for a year.

In these intense months the only things they did was rehearse. But junkies constantly trying to break in got to be too much. With the help of earnings from various jobs, they finally left the motor home. By this time the 120 Days sound was created.

It's a sound heralding a new dawn of electronic rock: built by vintage and discarded keyboards, colored by drones and noise, powered by guitars, and propelled, in lieu of a drummer, by a motorik beat synched with Kraftwerk and NEU! Other touchstones and inspirations include Suicide, Stereolab, Spaceman 3, Lou Reed's Metal Machine Music, Steve Reich's Four Organs, Primal Scream's XTRMNTR, The Stooges, New Order and Harmonia. The songs describe the desolation of cold, dark, long Oslo nights spent searching for escape, a hand to hold, or one last fix.

Early in 2004 the band released their critically acclaimed 3-song EP titled Sedated Times on the small Oslo label Public Demand Records. Late in 2004 they released their second EP, 5 tracks that caused quite a stir in Norway. And after the bands gig at By:Larm in Norway (the Norwegian equivalent to South By Southwest) the band sent shockwaves through a lot of industry people, and the gig resulted in the band being booked to both the Reading and Leeds Festivals in England and the SONAR Festival in Barcelona. Very soon the band had found a home with the great label Smalltown Supersound (Jaga Jazzist, Lindstrom, Kim Hiorthoy) for Norway, and with VICE Records in North America. With their signing to VICE they become the first Norwegian band ever to be signed directly to a US label.

Their self-titled debut album was produced by the band themselves and recorded in Oslo's Crystal Canyon studios in January and February 2006. The album was mixed by Jogen Traen and the band in Duper Studio, Bergen, in April 2006.

Sobre el ultimo disco y ella recogido en su web:

Recording in April 2006, Sarah set to task bringing to life a brand new set of songs she only began working on at the beginning of the year. In a strange twist of fate, Blasko headed straight from her performance of the Crowded House flagship number, "Don't Dream It's Over", at the Commonwealth Games closing ceremony, to Neil Finn's own Roundhead Studios, in Auckland, New Zealand.





Working again with loyal accomplice, Robert F Cranny, the pair brought in the talent and experience of Jim Moginie to assist with the production of the recordings. Blasko first encountered Moginie personally when collaborating with him on her version of "Flame Trees", although he is better known to many as a songwriter & multi-instrumentalist with legendary Australian band, Midnight Oil.


Complementing the freshness of these new compositions, Sarah took a four-piece band into the studio - a converted former ballroom - where the twelve new tracks were recorded live in the spacious and ornate surrounds by engineer Paul McKercher.


Finally, the project was mixed by Victor Van Vugt, an ex-pat Melbournian who has a long association with icons of the Australian music world, Nick Cave and Dave Graney.


Thematically, the album is an exploration of fatalism. Using the unpredictable ebbs and flows of the sea as her metaphor, Blasko looks at fate with a learned reverence, but with the maturity to set sail in spite of uncertainty, and the courage to use her own former shipwrecks as seamarks.


Sarah Blasko spent her youth in the suburbs of Sydney, in a family whose journeys of faith steered her through numerous religious denominations. Through the church, school and her Father’s oddball record collection, she was introduced to music quite accidentally, and has no formal training to speak of.


Having ventured out into the bright lights of Hollywood to record her last album, Sarah has spent two years touring the world only to find that Australia has a musical heritage as rich as anywhere else in the world.

The result is her second album, "What The Sea Wants, The Sea Will Have". Recorded swiftly, the album displays a more succinct, a more lucid and a more forthright Sarah Blasko. Her lyrics shoot straight and the instrumentation is clear and purposeful in its application.


Despite Blasko’s grace in the face of her humble achievements thus far, her confidence must have grown a little. She has tiptoed amongst the shadows of people like Jim Moginie, Neil Finn, Paul McKercher & Victor Van Vugt – people whose contribution to music stretches back into her suburban youth. Yet Sarah has emerged into the sunlight on the other side unflinchingly still herself.
