Singled Out: Maskin's Storm

Today Benny Andersson, the lead singer for Swedish fuzz rockers Maskin, tells us about the title track from their brand new album "Storm," which was recorded at the Truckfighters' studio Bombshelter. Here is the story:

The music for the song Storm (which also is the album name) came up pretty natural with an fusion of some ready riffs were the vocals sort of automatically forced the music to rearrange the rhythms in verses and chorus built on feel and words. Then mixing up some driven heavy riffs with calming, soothing patterns, just like the real thing, gave birth to our Storm.

The creation process was quite a coincidence as it fitted the lyrics with an a subtle reference to many things which is affected by outer force and uncontrollable issues, just like your typical Storm. Add in the words anyone can relate to when they are listening in, and putting their personal "storms" in the centre and you are there.

Unless it's an unsettlement with yourself, a struggle with government issues, sheer force or an disagreement in opinions, your storm changes and takes different shapes, but it will never wait. Just like the stomping weight of Maskin�s sound. Enjoy.

Hearing is believing. Now that you know the story behind the song, listen for yourself here and learn more about the album right here!
