New album: Sekunderna || Här Ha Du Ditt Liv

Succeeding several promising short format releases the debut LP of Sekunderna (Umeå, Sweden) is finally here. It’s called Här Ha Du Ditt Liv (Here’s Your Life – a nod to the Swedish classic movie from 1966 if I’m not mistaken) and contains 12 tracks sung exclusively in Swedish. Co-released by Bloated Kat Records (USA), Luftslott Records (Sweden) and Rockstar Records (Germany), Här Ha Du Ditt Liv has that classic Dirtnap Records sound: scrappy, melodic and melancholic garagy punk rock with a strong and steady motor that keeps the songs running smoothly.

Marked Men, Radioactivity and Lost Balloons fans should take note of this record, even though Sekunderna is not copying that sound one-on-one. I love how the band offsets the dark, moody and/or melancholic undertones in their music with super sweet and catchy melodies. Listen to the “Aaaaaah, shanana shanana” in Mellan Väggarna for example. But don’t just check out a couple of songs, listen to the whole thing. The quality throughtout the record is consistenly impressive. I’m definitely getting this!
