Lekman takes lost indie-pop hooks of past and present and breathes into them his droll senses of romance and melody, giving them new-found buoyancy. His songs serve as a reminder to look closer at the world around us, at its most heartbreaking, its most loving and its most absurd.

Over the past decade, few songwriters have dedicated themselves to dramatising the rise and fall of the heart as brilliantly as Lekman. PITCHFORK
