KJELLVANDER, CHRISTIAN - Songs From A Two - Room Chapel (180g) (Sealed) (LP)

So full of melancholy, suffering, desire and yes, minor, the ten songs on Kjellvander's debut album Songs From A Two-Room Chapel are so full of melancholy. (...)At the centre of the ten songs is the wonderful voice of Christian Kjellvander. Born in Sweden and raised in the USA, his English is accent-free, but rarely gets lost in chewing gum-like mumbling. He shapes the words carefully before they leave him, gives them an oldschoolig-countryfizierten twist every now and then, which lets the emaciated spirits of ancient country titans appear for a few milliseconds. And whoever manages that, has won anyway..
