Full Frontal Fashion - The Double Life of Sutan Amrull and Raja
 |

Sutan Amrull is a famous makeup artist who sometimes goes by the name Raja, the drag queen who is the clear favorite on the current season of RuPaul’s Drag Race. Bradford Shellhammer chats with Sutan/Raja about Rick Owens, why he puts up with L.A.’s douchebags, and “smart” drag.
Who came first, Sutan the artist or Raja the performer?
Raja came first, but it took Sutan (the vessel) to fully embody her and fully realize her as a supreme entity.
All right, that’s all bullshit! Sutan came first, I guess.

The Pusher - Planets
"Planets collide all the time"
December seems to be the month of Swedish bands changing their names. First it was Dyno (who are now Set Fire Run), and now it's Fashion (who I posted about back in August), who are now The Pusher. I hate to say it, but in both cases I liked the original name better. But this blog isn't about names. It's about music, and that's what matters. I'm delighted that the band will be releasing their best song (Blinded By The Dark) as a single. Planets is another old song that I think deserves definite single status. With a touch-up on the production, I could see this being really big because the melody's so strong. It's an excellent mix of pop and rock with a rollicking stadium chorus. Wait until about a minute in... it totally explodes. In a way, it's a little Kelly Clarkson-esque. In addition to this track, the guys have written a song with perhaps the funniest title of 2010: Blow Me And Run. Only in Sweden, folks.

Fashion - Blinded By The Dark
"We keep on pumping but the veins are dry"
Fashion are a new four-piece pop/rock band from Sweden that needs to be on your radar immediately. This song, in particular, has a surging dance energy and dramatic melody reminiscent of fellow Swedes Gravitonas work on their single, Kites. It's that perfect hybrid of rock, synth and pure pop that Scandinavian artists seem to do better than anyone else. It's cool and vaguely indie, but produced with such a meticulous sheen that it'd be hard for Top 40 radio to ignore. When the funk really comes in after the first chorus, resistance is futile. And although this (to me) is clearly the standout "single" of the bunch, the other songs they've got streaming on their facebook are pretty darn good as well.
