Release Notes:
I
Larsson has no history. It is now. MMVI.
It is what happens when five stylish eclectics
amicably collide.
[2/5 stems from the fierce rocking indie treat
Circle, in the annals because of their celebrated
'Vaudeville' album]
[1/5 oozed low end with a punk band called Dearly
Deported]
[1/5 explores more personal musical fields tout
court]
[1/5 pounds the skins with the Dutch-language
rocking formation called Amoebe]

II
Larsson is not vintage. Neither is it relic.
Larsson is a novelty.
Larsson invested in the heritage of 20th century
music, in whatever shape it came across.
Inevitably and yet deliberately Larsson thus echoes
all things great in tone, and peppers them up with
sane bursts of insanity and twists of lemon.
III
Larssonists do not talk about 'the organic growth
of a song', 'the concept of an album',
'the spiritual togetherness in song writing' or
other half-bred formulae.
Larssonists are colleagues in camaraderie;
Their business is music, their bond a strong pact;
Their shape is a robust fellowship, their manners
exquisite.
IV
Larsson is a trick with letters.
[M] and [b] make up for the most robust backbone of
a band since Mingus met Richmond .
[K] and [D] touch strings.
[B] pulls it off vocally.
V
Larsson has Style. Energy. Intensity.
This is what all great musicians have instructed
about. Larssonists are superb pupils.
VI
Larsson has no interest in forming your opinion.
You listen for yourself.
VII
Larsson says EN GARDE!
