The Broken Assembly
This week I thought I could start with The Broken Assembly and their EP “Emotional”, which was released in the beginning of the year. Lasse Thomasson has visited Meadowmusic before, with the rduo Strangers In Wonderland together with Åsa Girgensohn, and this time it’s also about a duo, now together with Helena Ahlbäck.
There’s a nice span between the songs which could be summarized with “The Broken Assembly makes it’s utmost to create something new and has firmly buried their strong roots in the underworld of the seventies and the eighties; where Patty Smith finally married Tom Petty to some AC/DC licks with Queen’s boy choir humming in the background” And all is glued together in the production and Helena’s colourful vocals.
Listen here to a couple of songs. The rest of the EP you can listen to and downloadon The Broken Assembly’s site.
