<TEXTFORMAT LEADING="2"><P ALIGN="LEFT"><FONT FACE="Verdana" SIZE="10" COLOR="#0B333C" LETTERSPACING="0" KERNING="0">Kent is a Swedish rock band founded in Eskilstuna in 1990, with the name Coca-Cola Kids, later Jones &amp; Giftet (Jones &amp; the Poison), and Havsänglar (Angel sharks, literally Sea angels). The band&apos;s logo is distinctive, using a lowercase &quot;k&quot; and the ITC Avant Garde Gothic Book typeface. Kent has had several big Swedish radio hits since the breakthrough single &quot;Kräm (så nära får ingen gå)&quot;. As of 2007, they are one of the most popular rock groups in Sweden, but are more or less unknown outside Scandinavia. Kent shortly attempted an international career with English versions of the albums Isola and Hagnesta Hill with accompanying U.S. tours for the former, but they gave up after not reaching the breakthrough they had hoped for. Kent continued their Scandinavian endeavours with three more albums and an EP, continuing to win several awards along the way and being generally regarded as Sweden&apos;s most popular band. The band has sold over a million records.</FONT></P></TEXTFORMAT><TEXTFORMAT LEADING="2"><P ALIGN="LEFT"><FONT FACE="Verdana" SIZE="10" COLOR="#0B333C" LETTERSPACING="0" KERNING="0"></FONT></P></TEXTFORMAT><TEXTFORMAT LEADING="2"><P ALIGN="LEFT"><FONT FACE="Verdana" SIZE="10" COLOR="#0B333C" LETTERSPACING="0" KERNING="0">Two of the band&apos;s four members are Sweden Finns.</FONT></P></TEXTFORMAT>
