MP3: Markus Krunegård - Jag är en vampyr
Ok, so here we have the debut solo single from Laakso frontman Markus Krunegård, "Jag är en vampyr". The myspace page says "gothic" and the synth reinforces that, as does the title ("I am a vampire"). Otherwise, aside from the choice of language, it's not really all that different from Laakso. I don't have the recording credits in front of me, but I'd be mighty surprised if that wasn't Lars Skoglund on the drums, as that hi-hat heavy playing is most certainly his style. Which is to say, it's good. Surprise! Actually, it is a bit more low-key than usual as Markus never totally lets loose and wails, but whatever- it's good to confound expectations every now and then. Now, as for what this portends with regards to the upcoming album "Markusevangeliet", I can't say for sure as I've only heard a few tracks. I'm excited though.
