The New York-based pop culture magazine Movmnt  has featured a portrait of Alibi Tom in their latest Issue #8! You can order a copy from their webpage.

2008 was a very exciting year for us in many different ways. We released our first album, went on a nearly month long tour and got to shoot two videos! We released a few singles as well, two as a matter of fact. In the end of the year it is also time for almost every (swedish) music journalist to recomend basically the same 10 or 20 songs and albums as all their other collegues do. Amusing really, because we all knew about the songs radio has already played to death during the year;-). So, it is very refreshing when there are people who actually don’t take the easy way out and instead take their time to present the 104 best singles of the year!!! In Mexico there is a nice blog runned by handful of comitted people called away from here that actually did that. Fire is featured as # 44 on their top single list!!! Not bad!

Fire is also featured on another blog covering the best 20 tunes of 2008, of wich a lot of them are not known to everyone already (such as “fire” ;-)). The blog is simply called “The best of the year“!

 Take care and talk soon,

Markus

I thought about a few things that we totaly forgot to mention. In a few days we will present the autumn tour for you. We are so excited about it! Meanwhile you can have a look at a few links that should have been presented earlier.
