Makthaverskan

Makthaverskan´s latest album, För Allting, fits between blissful pop and angst-ridden punk, but it's never content to land on any one set identity for long. As Pitchfork writes of the band, the Sweden-based outfit of five former schoolmates makes "music for the margins," and here in the spaces of För Allting is a restless, unwavering need to explore.

Propelling further into an identity that one will never fully grasp, each second of För Allting comes with something once unheard of from the group. There's drum machines, synthesizers, and a blissful, shimmering self-awareness that what they're ultimately creating is dream-pop for realists. Makthaverskan is unafraid to face the contradictions between beauty and rage; instead, they turn them into something completely new.
