Self-confident and challenging, the Raveonettes entered the service department stone race of the new millenary with a stylish, brassy sound non heard since Sonic Youth's Moon Nation. Sune Rose Wagner (guitar, vocals) and Sharin Foo (freshwater bass, vocals) acclaim from Copenhagen and formed the Raveonettes out of dismay for their homeland's state of music.


Wagner had tried and true acquiring a band together during the tardy '90s, packing his bags for New York City's Hell's Kitchen and later experiencing the low crannies of Las Vegas, west Hollywood, and an island outside of Seattle. His first exposure to pop music was his mother's written matter of Bob Dylan's In front the Flood. Bob Dylan became Wagner's melodic muse. Bits of Buddy Holly and the Everly Brothers and the guitar act of Mark Knopfler ruined in later on, but the adorable dissonance of Sonic Youth and the Jesus and Mary Chain motivated Wagner to do music on a professional horizontal surface. Alas, his remain in America didn't exactly cooking pan out, so Wagner returned to Denmark and connected with Foo, world Health Organization had been tattle in and around hometown clubs. Foo was born and bred on the Beatles and the Velvet Underground, merely also found humanity euphony to be equally enticing. During a six-month delay in India, Foo studied qawwali music and dhrupad, the well-nigh ancient style of Hindustani classical music. Once Foo and Wagner dependent up, the adventures of the Raveonettes began.


The Raveonettes had a set of rules when it came to creating material. These rules consisted of qualification an album only in Bb minor, surrounded by only trey chords, and each song had to be less than triad transactions long. Ride cymbals were not allowed, either. What came close to was a fuzzy, dark, cinematic ready of songs gathered for the Raveonettes' debut album. Blister It On, which was written on a four-track and drum motorcar, fused classic garage rumblings with frenzied electronic bits. Whip It On appeared on Crunchy Frog in Europe in summer 2002. In July, the Raveonettes waltzed into N.Y.C.'s CBGB for an American first appearance. Producer Richard Gottehrer (Blondie, Joan Armatrading, the Go-Go's) caught the usher and signed on to put to work on the band's first base uncut record album. A share with Columbia followed earlier the year's goal, posing the Raveonettes for some quality buzz in the class to come.


The Chain Gang of Love appeared in September 2003. The first unmarried from the album, "That Great Love Sound," became a minor hit, referable in part to a creepy-crawly video featuring Foo and Wagner dream up ways to kill each other. The roger Huntington Sessions for their adjacent album began in late 2004, and Wagner swan aside their songwriting and recording rules and most all traces of guitar straining, replacement them with classical songcraft and lots of rich reverb on everything. The resulting album, 2005's Pretty in Black, featured guest spots from Suicide's Martin Rev, Ronnie Spector, and the Velvet Underground's Moe Tucker.
