HEMGRAVEN
Saudade (7")
Peter Out - 6 €
In a short period of time, Hemgraven has proved to be one of swedens most interesting and energetic bands of recent years, both live and on record, with their feet firmly rooted in the countrys history of dark 80’s new wave, while at the same time constantly looking forward.
Since their highly acclaimed mini-album "Sanddyner Av Glas" came out on Peter Out Records, the band has been touring Sweden and Denmark, and their tunes have frequently been heard on nordic student radio stations as well as on goth dance floors around the globe.
"Saudade" (An untranslatable portuguese word, meaning something close to “a feeling of nostalgia for something you know you cannot go back to”) is a melodic and sofisticated new wave-gem where the static beats and chilling synth melodies beckons you to dive deeper into the dark waters of doomed nostalgia.
