Stellan Wahlstrom Drift Band
Across The Room
Belpid Records
ADDS 11/17/09

Recorded the old-fashioned way on to 2"-tape by Christian Gabel at Cobra Studio in Stockholm and mixed by Patrick A Derivaz (Television, Luna, John Cale) in Brooklyn, NY. The band has taken their music deeper into their own brand of urban folk rock - the cracked tones of Telecasters meet with lots of piano, organ, acoustic guitars and a 12-string electric Hagström in the warm analogue recording.

"A more sophisticated take on a cross between post-Velvets (Underground) and Alt-Country with a very clean almost
jazz-like ambience." - The Big Takeover

"They elegantly hang around Lou Reed as confidently as when they occasionally sneak into some Americana. And Stellan Wahlström's lyrics on top of great songs like "Burn baby burn" and "Never look a woman in the eyes" can definitely be enjoyed." - Oskarshamns Tidning (Sweden)

RIYL: Destroyer, Pete Yorn, Mountain Goats
TRY: #1, 5, 7, 8
