Mastermind Johan Hellqvist tells: "Lately I’ve been listening too much to different goth pop acts. Maybe the past years of visiting WGT has taken its toll or maybe I’m just getting old. Turns out one day I sat down with the Electric Hagström bass, a glass of whisky, and started writing. I never knew how to sing properly, but during the past 12 years recording with auto-auto I had to improve my singing enough to be able to explain and elaborate on the ideas in that project. I don’t really know how to write lyrics either, at least not in any other fashion than feeling sorry for myself. So I got the help of my wife and a friend and with the aid of their teenage diaries I could REALLY feel sorry for myself.- Details

Somehow sad and somehow happy. His voice is unmistakable and the music traditional and modern at the same time. The piano and wind instruments sounds make them special.
