Lowood’s soundscapes are sometimes desolate and sparce, sometimes as impalpable and intangible as air, but occasionally burst with the force of conviction that resembles the electric legacy of pop’s eternals. Part Joy Division, part Red House Painters, part Low, part Stina Nordenstam, ‘Close To Violence’ is obviously a work by lovers of music of intense emotional charge. But Lowood’s musical language is in the true sense of the word their own. Therese Johanssons personal songwriting, sense of melody and unparalleled voice appears to have been made for the sort of introspective pop music and expression that has become a necessity in her life. Therese and Kicki effortlessly complete each other, and with Therese’s crisp guitar adorned by Kicki’s lush keyboard melodies, this album is a masterwork of ethereal but jagged beauty.
Hej! Tänkte bara tacka för fin musik och oförglömligt mysig spelning på Arvika. Vi har fått upp en låt på våran sida nu, kommer upp mer nu under hösten/vintern. Så om ni orkar får ni gärna lyssna på vår lite semideppiga Karlstadsrock. :) Ha det underbart! /Björn
