Weibenfalk – “Sekunder”

Weibenfalk is a project led by Thomas Weibenfalk. In the Autumn he released the new album  “Sekunder”, which I’ve been listening to today. He moves in the domain of folk-inspired singer/songwriter-rock, an area where we often see artists like Springsteen, Winnerbäck and Lundell. And as an old Lundell-fan I soon find some paralells to “Den Vassa Eggen”, in the 80’s-sounding room, in the mood and in the grand choruses. With that said, the sound doesn’t really feel retro, it’s rather firmly set in our current decade, where I think Thomas has carved out his own personal space in the genre. It’s a very even album which alternates between the reflective, the soul-searching and the outbound, with comments about the world around us, and between light and darkness, in a music which simmers of lust for life.
The album was produced by Andreas Dahlbäck, who also produced Vindkraft, whom I wrote about yesterday, and well, a long row of other artists alsom, like Lundell, Anna Ternheim, Ola Salo among others. Here below are some of my favourites from “Sekunder”.
Thomas has released a number of albums where you can hear five of them on the streaming services.
