Our Take

Kristofer Åström’s latest album, Northern Blues, is a rollercoaster of emotions that takes listeners on a journey through heartbreak, longing, and ultimately, redemption. The Swedish singer-songwriter's distinctive blend of Americana and folk influences creates a sound that is both hauntingly beautiful and effortlessly cool.

From the opening track, "The Wild," Åström's soulful vocals immediately draw you in, setting the tone for the rest of the album. The stripped-back arrangements on songs like "All Lovers Hell" and "Silent Blues" allow his lyrics to shine, showcasing his poetic storytelling ability.

Northern Blues is filled with catchy hooks and infectious melodies that will have you tapping your foot and singing along in no time. Tracks like "Sad Moon Eyes" and "Only Lovers" are instant earworms that will stay with you long after the album has finished.

But it's not all sunshine and rainbows on Northern Blues. Åström isn't afraid to delve into darker themes, exploring heartache and loss with raw emotion and vulnerability. Songs like "Sweet Cream" and "About Love" reveal his raw, introspective side, creating a deeply personal listening experience.

Overall, Northern Blues is a captivating and soul-stirring album that showcases Kristofer Åström's talent as a songwriter and musician. It's a journey worth taking, so buckle up and enjoy the ride.
