Traveling Band

They bring out the sexy beast in many of their fans.
As recently seen on the official Division of Laura Lee internet message board:

  • "I just need one show in Dallas, Texas to see sexual Division of Laura Lee and fuck your guitar man because he is mucho sexy".
  • "Hey fellows. Me and my girlfriend had sex to your record last night. It was a blast. Thank u".
  • "Swedish invadors. You rock so bad I want to make love to you, beautiful boys...".

    Granted, the members of DVSN are pretty easy on the eyes, but all you have to do is listen to Black City and you too will probably want to get your freak on after sampling the sexual tension of the record. Take, for instance, these lyrics from "Wild and Crazy": "I'm not your toy for penetration/ I'm not your sick sexual savior/ I am your fucking bad behavior". Rest assured, those are not words you'll find on the latest Blink 182 album.

    David does a hilarious impression of Liam Gallagher.
    Seriously, he does (okay, had to be there).

    In cyber space, DVSN has been the source of debate over "what is punk?"
    "I heard about that," recalls Jonas. When asked what his thoughts were on the subject, he puts it simply, "Nowadays, you can buy 'punk' in any store but it's more of an attitude. You can wear a suit and be punk. But I don't want to say the music we do it punk, it's way more than traditional punk. Whether I'm punk or not, I really don't care." Can you imagine doing anything else? "Not really. Hopefully, we'll do a couple of more years with this band and maybe then I'll become a carpenter or a nurse or something."
