release the bats #8 1999 - MIDNIGHT PEOPLE 7" This is the splendid debut release from the new swedish band 1999! The sound of 1999 is primitive yet oh so special, i would say that they are like a we-build-our-songs-like-primetime-Misfits mix of early Killing Joke and Siouxsie And The Banshees. Desperate melodies, melodies, melodies. Desperate youth anthems. Really can´t describe it in words. Members from Audionom. One of the best new bands coming from sweden in a long, long time. This 7" has two songs and comes in a fullcolor cover jacket with a spine. Split release with Promenade Recordings and Lady Godiva Operations.

Still don´t know what we thought about, it is a 7" damnit! But hell, sure it looks good. I still don´t understand why this release didn´t took off more than it did, i remember listening to the songs before the record release and being so excited that i couldn´t sleep... I guess Sweden wasn´t ready. I just want to go out smashing windows and setting police trucks on fire when listening to Midnight People! - Matthias Andersson, September 2006
