New album The Wild Hunt getting rave reviews...

ha!

Kristian Matsson is both a romantic and a realist…he uses the barest of pop-folk settings to give mundane moments… a grandeur so disproportional that it’s difficult not to identify and sympathize with him – Pitchfork, 8.5 Best New Music (The Wild Hunt)

no one likes pitchfork

"Near impeccable..." - The Guardian

the full quote is

"Innovative? Absolutely not. But as 35 minutes of 50-quid-bloke folky guitar music goes, it's near impeccable."

"The clean, galloping banjos and guitars spotlight his pristine snarl, which slips down into powerful bass notes and then reaches up and yelps on key, accentuating his ambitious, second-language lyrics." - Paste Magazine

who are paste magazine?

"The Wild Hunt is a heady and enthralling work, its impressionistic nature bolstered by levels of charm and confidence found all too rarely in these modern times." - BBC Music His songs are jammed with enough surprises to make him seem like a singular new talent – SPIN, ****

i'll give you them


anyway my point is this is thumped, don't be trying to spin stuff for god's sake

Well, if he doesn't go on until half nine then I'll be pleased, John. I'll be across town eating tasty things prior and don't want to miss the first few like I did with Ted Leo.

Kristin was great, the audienc were not. It's been ages since I was so pissed off at a gig.

 

[jcdonaggio]

didnt notice anything annoying audiencewise, altho I was upstairs for the gig.

Thought the show was excellent. Did anyone recognise the cover he did towards the end? I recognised the tune but can't recall the name
