Silesia [CD]

Jeniferever, the Uppsala four-piece -- Kristofer Jnson, Martin Sandstrm, OlleBilius and Fredrik Aspelin -- have previously been compared to some trulyotherworldly outfits, bands with the ability to paint a world around the listener.But every second of Silesia is tied to place and time, bound by reality andborne by experience.The album's title is taken from the former name of Berlin's Ostbahnhof. It wasnear here, while on tour in 2009, that Kristofer learned that his father had passedaway. Reality bit where there was so often release; the structure of life on the roadcollapsed, and the band canceled their remaining dates. Several months later,a third album began to form; while not wholly informed by the recent tragedy,nevertheless the collection bears its title with no little relevance. Said Kristofer,"I liked the idea of naming it after a railway station since it's a place of motion,a place where people arrive and depart and sometimes maybe depart never tocome back..." And the end product is Jeniferever's brightest, most immediatelong-player yet. From pain, confidence; from darkness, light.
