Reflections
I found some truly beautiful photos shot by Tom Hussey the other day. Old people now and what they once were. The photos are part of his series “Mirrors” and tell the story of the quick passing of time, the memories of life and the inevitable death. At least that’s what they made me reflect upon. I though about my parents who are getting older every time I see them. Meaning, I can see that now. I didn’t really notice before.
Memento mori
Kungens Män
Just a quick update about the band I’m playing in.
On Friday May 17th we did our very first show, opening for Masters Musicians of Bukkake at the f.a.n.t.a.s.t.i.c. Truckstop Alaska venue in Gothenburg, Sweden. Great people, great sound, great atmosphere… The perfect place for anyone to do a gig, really. From now on we can only expect a downward spiral in our career… It was that good.
The full concert is up on YouTube with amazing sound quality and amazingly poor picture quality.
More stuff here:
Spotify – Two albums available for your listening pleasure.
Bandcamp – Transportkatalogen, a digital release available for free (or name your price).
Soundcloud – A whole bunch of songs not available elsewhere. Free downloads as well.
Facebook – Photos, exclusives, merch and more.
Ljudkassett – Great tape label! Support.
TPB AFK – The Pirate Bay – Away From Keyboard
Kungens Män
The art of shameless self-promotion!
We have a new band called Kungens Män. Improvised psychedelia, or something like that. Listen to some rehearsals on our Soundcloud page and if you like it, check the Facebook page for more stuff. Thanks!
The best albums of 2012
2012 brought a whole bunch of good albums, but very few that really fucked me up the way I like it.
When checking Pitchfork, The Wire or whatever shit that’s hot right now, I realize I’ve only heard three or four albums on their lists. Maybe that’s a good thing…
The albums listed with cover art are those that seriously messed with my mind, i.e. they are insanely good. The rest is also well worth your attention. Check them out!
