Ungdomskulen (The Junior High) is a .. progressive indie rock (?) three piece from Bergen, Norway. Their debut album Cry Baby was a very decent album, and obviously the start of something good. For some reason I only got into them after seeing them live at the second time here in Bergen, right before they released their second album, Bisexual. The album is perhaps even better than Cry Baby, and should definately put them on the world music map.
The song I have selected is the most astonishing track: “I Dunno”. The song has a pretty massive groovy right from the start. Beautiful bass and gitar combinations and great use of cow bells, which is a Ungdomskulen trademark. Then there’s a break down, and a pretty funky slow part. When the song kicks in again, it’s amazing what they accomplish with just bass and guitar. Just a plain amazing track.
And the concludes this christmas calendar. 
Merry Christmas!
