(Revised version: this new version includes the link to the first single “Glädjedödare”) Swedish heavy rockers Second Sun are thrilled to announce the release of their new album, Elektriska Mardrömmar (Electric Nightmare), due out on November 15th in both digital and vinyl formats through Majestic Mountain Records. In anticipation of the album release, the band recently revealed another single titled “För De Som Måste Komma Bort,” giving fans a taste of the electrifying and captivating sound that Elektriska Mardrömmar has to offer. They previously unveiled the first single from this new album, “Glädjedödare,” which you can listen to at this location. Listen to “För De Som Måste Komma Bort” here. Comprised of a diverse group of musicians from various musical backgrounds, Second Sun features Stipen Karlsson (ex-Merciless, ex-Dia Psalma, Åfysatan) on drums, Jakob Ljungberg (Tyrann, ex-Tribulation) handling vocals and guitar, Björn Trägårdh (ex-VCPS, ex-Lula) on guitar and vocals, and Marcus Hedman (Corridor People, ex-Moralens Väktare) on bass. Elektriska Mardrömmar was recorded between 2023 and 2024, with production overseen by Olle Granat and the band themselves. The album has been expertly mixed and mastered by Jamie Elton. The stunning cover artwork, crafted by Susanna Berglund, complemented by layout design from Adam Zaars, ensures a visually captivating presentation that perfectly aligns with the music. Pre-orders are now available at this location. The band shared their thoughts on the new effort, stating: “The album itself—unlike the previous one, which had a cohesive story—is intended to be a collection of short stories. The overarching themes explore laziness, reluctance to perform, outsider status (both self-chosen and imposed), and a constant fatigue with our increasingly idiotic and incomprehensible contemporary society.” |
