Jon Högman wrote in to highly recommend this website for covers: www.bandit1063.com. Most of this information is from Jon, as I cannot read Swedish.
So some information on Bandit: "Bandit Unplugged" is the radio's morning show for "För tidigt" (translated "Too early"), hosted by Bollnäs-Martin and Chewie (Star Wars nerds should know this one).
Every Thursday at 07:50 AM, they invite their friend Peter to play an acoustic cover (hence unplugged). They're not a real band, so I'm just calling them the Bandit band.
I did download a few of their songs, and I definitely like this cover of Bad Religion's "Generator" a lot. Other songs you may be interested in hearing: Depeche Mode's "Enjoy the Silence", Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit", and Offspring's "The Kids Aren't Alright".
Bonus: You can sign up to have a new song every Thursday emailed to you by signing up on their website. Also if you want to listen to the original "Generator" song, I have posted it on coverlover.
I thought I'd mention these two blogs that mentioned links to r.i.p. keith "blueboy":

On the first blog, hey, I cried when I see animals in danger :(... The second blog is in Italian, basically just talks about Blueboy and the official death statement. You can probably use babelfish.altavista.com for a loose translation.
Also, just wanted to mention that you can always contact us via [email protected] (or vu@weheart... or anyone@weheart). Speaking for myself, I am always looking for new music and suggestions. If you are a music promoter or in a band, please also contact me, I will definitely try and check you guys out... although I cannot guarantee that we will write about your band.
If you are passionate about music, please join us on weheartmusic! You do not even have to write in English (music knows no language!).
