Av Stoft has since it’s release three years ago been one of my most
played albums, so I had high expectations when I saw the announcement
for Blodsdåd och hor. When it first dropped I was honestly pretty
disappointed, with it not managing to live up to my (probably too)
high expectations. I would give it a few listens here and there but it
just never clicked. I wrote it off, then a month ago or so I put it on
again and something caught my interest and after then giving it
another spin somehow it started making sense. After another few
listens I was hooked, it’s still not nearly as rock solid as Av
Stoft but it’s a lot better than the impression I had of it after the
first few listens. I do have one complaint and that’s that they gave
in and split the two songs into four tracks each, while I’m well aware
of the reasons to do so, it offends my sense of order as it’s still
just two songs and you should be forced to listen to it all. That
said, minor quibble, give this a spin, and if it doesn’t hit you give
it a rest and try again.
