TRACKS II: THE LOST ALBUMS are seven unheard Bruce Springsteen records made between 1983-2018.<br/> <br/>Featuring 82 previously unreleased songs, The Lost Albums fill in chapters of Springsteen's expansive career timeline, while offering invaluable insight into his life and work as an artist. "The Lost Albums were full records, some of them even to the point of being mixed and not released," said Springsteen. "I've played this music to myself and often close friends for years now. I'm glad you'll get a chance to finally hear them. I hope you enjoy them." <br/> <br/>From the lo-fi exploration of LA Garage Sessions '83, serving as a crucial link between Nebraska and Born in the U.S.A., to the drum loop and synthesizer sounds of Streets of Philadelphia Sessions, The Lost Albums offer unprecedented context to 35 prolific years of Springsteen's songwriting and home recording. "The ability to record at home whenever I wanted allowed me to go into a wide variety of different musical directions," Springsteen explained. Throughout the set, that sonic experimentation takes the form of film soundtrack work (for a movie that was never made) on Faithless, country combos with pedal steel on Somewhere North of Nashville, richly woven border tales on Inyo, orchestra-driven, mid-century noir on Twilight Hours and E Street favored rock on Perfect World.<br/> <br/>The Lost Albums are available in limited-edition nine-LP format, including original packaging for each previously unreleased record, with a 100-page cloth-bound, hardcover book featurimng rare archival photos, liner notes on each lost album from essayist Erik Flannigan and a personal introduction on the project from Springsteen himself.

Larsson Zara: Midnight sun (Signerad/Ltd) [Vinyl LP]

Vinyl - Standard - GATEFOLD - 180GR. / INCL. FOLDED POSTER / STICKER / POSTCARD<br/><br/>On a wall of Arcade Fire's New Orleans studio, photos map the territory of its sixth album, WE. On one side, images capture what ails us - a crushing boot, a wounded man, a child staring blankly at a screen. On the other side, joyous family pictures cluster. In the center, there's a photograph of the cover of "We," the 1921 sci-fi novel by Yevgeny Zamyatin, showing a crystalline skyscraper in which the citizens of a dystopia live under constant surveillance.<br/><br/>With an album already written, Arcade Fire started recording in February, 2020, but were interrupted by the start of the pandemic. Win & Régine spent the rest of that year and most of the next writing even more songs. "It was the longest we've ever spent writing, uninterrupted, probably ever" Butler said. Still, the resulting album - produced by Nigel Godrich, Win & Régine - is a concise 40 minutes long. Its first side, "I," is about our troubles; its second side, "WE," is about our love for one another.

Faithfull Marianne: Before the poison (Clear) [Vinyl LP]

Vid förhandsbokning medföljer ett signerat vinylkort.

Det amerikanska rockbandet Interpol med sitt sjunde album "The Other Side of Make-Believe". På albumet utmanar Interpol sig själva mer än någonsin. Till undertoner av den ondska som präglar vår samtid kryddar trion musiken med en rejäl dos längtan och nyvunnen elegans.<br/><br/>Arbetet med "The Other Side of Make-Believe" inleddes på distans under 2020. Bandmedlemmarna återförenades sedan 2021 för att ge sig på materialet tillsammans. Att det första låtskrivarstadiet ägde rum individuellt på geografiskt skilda platser i stället för live med alla<br/>tre fysiskt närvarande som de vanligtvis brukar göra, blev som en frisk fläkt för dem.
