kent is a Swedish rock band formed in 1990 in Eskilstuna, about 110 km west from Stockholm. They are quite popular in Sweden, with 20 Grammis Awards (the Swedish equivalent of the Grammy Awards) and over a million records sold, but are barely known outside Scandinavia. I guess the main reason is that they sing in Swedish only.
The first kent album I heard is titled Tillbaka Till Samtiden, which is supposed to mean Back To The Present. Its their seventh studio album released in 2007. Very good and pleasant to listen album, in my opinion.
Those disco beats that I hear in most of the tracks are a typical Swedish feature, their understanding for entertainment is strongly coupled with the disco music. Exceptions are Vid Din Sida, Colombus, Sömnen, LSD, Någon?.
