Thåström - Körkarlen

Yesterday did Thåström start his upcoming tour to support his latest album release "Centralmassivet", the premier was at Lisebergshallen, Gothenburg. I was one of the lucky invited to be able to leave the homebound and take a trip to Gothenburg to see this live.

I must say, that the premiere of Thåström was a magical evening, he has become a giant in his own genre. He has set an almost impossible standard for others to follow, far from any commercial rules.

The show is just perfect and very unconventional in the whole, it's very dark and deep, but full of energy with a lightning that is cut with an precision that you lose words, well done Brown. The sound is loud with an very Industrial feeling. nice to see you on the road again Björn Lehnberg. The show was mostly based on the last two albums song vise, so no reason to complain, on the contrary.

Tunes like "Körkarlen", "Jag är en idiot" "Fan fan fan" were just stunning, see all the tunes below. "Pimme" goes round in circles in a characteristic way, as we are getting used to by now. The fingers flutters during his walks and when he stand still, he hangs on the stand as it would have been a resting pillar. After the show I got invited to take part in the after party, great to meet old friends like Brown, Brenge, Roos, Lehnberg, Wallinder and get the chance to give "Pimme" a big thank you for a magical evening.

Today's tune "Körkarlen" is the latest single from "Centralmassivet". Regi, production, clipp, postproduction: Svante Loden/Kabalen AB

Thåström - Axel Landqvists Park

 

Last week I got a chance to see Thåström live again, this was probably the fiftyeleven time. Have actually lost count. But it does not matter for this time it was fucking fantastic, what a gig, quite incredible, thank you "Brenge". Joakim ”Pimme” Thåström only gets better the older he gets. The sound was brilliant, thank you Björn Lehnberg, the light was a beautiful, thank you Morgan Brown. The choice of tracks was very good. But in the end happened something strange, the Swedish poet Bruno K. Öijer enters and makes two poetic number that is very odd.
