Great question/topic for discussion.

I found (and bookmarked) this site on a search for Swedish pop a few months 
ago. (I was actually searching for info on the band Popsicle when I found 
it)

http://www.indiespinzone.com/popsicle.html

I have no affiliation, nor have I ordered anything...though your post and 
some discussion on the topic may change that status.
