Biography
THE CONFUSIONS have now established a reputation as one of Sweden's cleverest pop exports. A fistful of fine albums has more than convinced any doubters. 

Their latest, "Trampoline", is out in September 2002. It features the stunning single "The Pilot", which hit number one on MTV's Up North chart. 

The Confusions are right now finishing their new yet untitled album, but two new ep's have been released 2016/2005 "Window" and "Don't Let The World Catch You Crying". Both title tracks from these eps have done well on both TV and radio in Scandinavia. 

The band's 1996 album "Everyone's Invited" was perhaps their breakthrough, acclaimed throughout the pop press as one of the very best albums of the year. With its quirky ideas, strong melodies and inventive playing, the album is a delight: check out "Steroid hearts" or "Cornflake King", both of which did well as singles. The latter was rotated on the French equivalent to MTV, MCM International. The album wasn't short of fans around Europe. Several ofBritain's notoriously fussy music magazines praised The Confusions. Melody Maker put them above Ocean Colour Scene and other domestic bands, Record Collector called the album a "wondrous debut", while Dis-Connected said they deserved to be "bigger than ABBA". 

That album was followed up in 1998 by "Six-0-Seven", once again produced by Peter Svensson of the Cardigans.  Their songs are about the usual hang-ups that haunt young life: love, repressed emotions, jealousy and hope. The Confusions are great fun, but thoughtful at the same time. Not confusing at all, when you think about it.
