ABBA were more like the Swedish 5th Dimension or the Swedish Mamas & the Papas but circa 70s. ABBA were like if Captain & Tennille and Carpenters collided together and fused into one pop group.
I wonder if Sweden ever had a jam band. Like what band out there would be considered the Swedish Phish?

Hmmm
I wonder how much the average dead head who followed the band around received per month from their parents. Obviously that **** wasn’t free. Tons of them were selling **** but there must have been sizable injections of cash from outside the communities unless they really profited a lot from the locals.

90s Megadeth beats the **** out of 90s Metallica cause when Metallica made the shift to pop they tried to keep their dark vibe from the 80s to stay badass like dumb dudes who don't like gay people whereas Megadeth played around way more with the tone of how they approached their pop metal/hard rock. Metallica stayed stone faced but Megadeth could actually have fun and it translated not only to the tone of their songs but to how they actually wrote them which made them a more effective pop metal band.
Metallica would never make songs as silly and fun as this.

So it looks like I've started to really dig Dire Straits' debut album.
I mean, I'm not deaf, I notice how it's safe and bland and boring, yeah, but it's chill and groovy and enjoyable and the guitar is indeed pretty damn sweet.

Idk Dire Straights well enough to have an opinion on them.

Remember the late 90s/early 00s when all those people listened to punk?
