"Sad Day For Puppets - Unknown Colors". Där har ni det som dragit till sig störst öron och ögon hos mig just nu. Skapligt nytt debutalbumrelease, och det här har man ju hört 111 miljoner gånger innan. Men det kommer när ingen annan gör det just nu, och vem med ett indiehjärta av sammet kan inte annat än att le som ett barn i godisbutiken en lördag? Eller som bandet själv skriver på myspace: "something you've heard before... but still, like nothing else. "
-"13 låtar på albumet..!" säger du, ja men då har du ju inte hört låtarna, gitarrpopdängor blandat lite slöare med slidegitarr eller både och. Det låter gammalt fast på ett bra sätt, ljudbilden och kvaliteten är från en annan planet med något slags hifimått sett, men ändå helt perfekt här. Allt inramat av sångerskans kåtljuva (får man säga så?) röst, kanske som en ung (får man säga så..?!) Anna Järvinen.
Bäst beskriver sig bandet själv på myspace:
"It is as simple as this... Are you into wall of guitars, waves of voices, bombastic heartbreaks and sobbing...
...then we are indeed a friend.
Sad Day For Puppets was formed in 2006 in Blackeberg, a suburb to Stockholm (Sweden), by Martin Källholm, guitarist and songwriter. The natural focal point of the band is singer Anna Eklund, in it's turn leaning on Marcus Sandgren's ringing and fuzzy chords.
Most of the bands influences can be traced back to the early nineties, when they all were teenagers. This period has made it’s mark on the band. The guitars are once again allowed to roam free and shine. The music is all about shimmering layers of guitars, intertwined feedback melodies all dreamy and grand and sad, and ethereal harmony vocals.
The band started working on the debut album as soon as “Just Like a Ghost EP” ( april 2008) was out, and this time the guitars have an even more prominent place in the over all sound. There's guitar feedback, fuzzy distortion and big harmonies working as a fond for the voice of Anna."
