JANE HELEN

March 2012.
--------------
Jane Helen is a five member Norwegian rock band located in Oslo. When the world entered
the millennium, Jane Helen entered the scene. The band has been ranting and raving the stage
at venues all over Norway ever since.
Jane Helen's shows are known to be somewhat visually inevitable, which explains why the
presenter of a Red Cross charity concert introduced these rockers as "someone in need of
therapy". It's not that everything about these rockers' always has to be so "wild" or "crazy".
It's more the fact that they tend to fall into what they do with such intense immersion that the
expression becomes somewhat theatrical or performance like.
There are three main musical elements that shift on terminating the direction of each song;
fast forward rythmic riffs, soft melodic harmonies, or filthier, darker tail heavy themes. The
result is an eclectic journey through the rock n roll landscape.
Jane Helens music dwells between light simplicity and darker, filthier rythms. There's always
an element of punk, but labelling the band as as a punk rock band, simply doesn't do it. This
indierock phenomena has been radio listed in Norway, Sweden, USA and Germany - they
even appeared in ElleGirl Korea issue on European indie hot stuff. JH has released an EP and
a CD, an now their newer beats are ready for a digital EP release this spring 2012.
