A Heavy Feather is David Sandström and "Caitlin Mooney" is the first single from his album "You're the lotion on darkness knuckles as it punches light in the face". The concept of David taking his hyper-literate rock songwriting (see: David Sandström Overdrive) and applying it to hyper-literate, down-tempo electronica might seem bewildering, but that's because it is. On the other hand, he's done enough stylistic left-turns over the years, from Refused to the "Grandfather" album (my favorite) to collaborating with rapper Adam Tensta, his latest venture probably shouldn't come as a surprise, and yet it's not a direction I had anticipated. I'm really not sure what to make of the song either, especially outside the context of the album as a whole. It seems an odd choice as a single, but perhaps that's by design? I wouldn't put it past him.
A Heavy Feather, the new solo project of the one-and-only David Sandström, now has a new website: http://www.aheavyfeather.com/
Look for his full-length debut "You're the lotion on darkness knuckles as it punches light in the face" to be released on October 12 via .
Remember this? Well, it appears that was just the beginning -- apparently David Sandström will be playing live drums for Adam Tensta throughout his upcoming tour and has also contributed songwriting material to Tensta's forthcoming album "Scared of the dark" which comes out on March 14.
