Östersjöar - Östersjöar

Fakten After a year of creativity and musical exploration, the newly formed band Östersjöar is ready to release their debut vinyl, simply titled Östersjöar. The record is released on Coop Records Gotland and captures the band’s unique sound, described as a train in motion - driven, rhythmic, and infused with krautrock influences. Musically, Östersjöar evokes a fusion of Joy Division’s cold, pulsing rhythms and Hawkwind’s expansive sonic landscapes, with each track offering an atmospheric and hypnotic journey. The album was recorded live during a December evening at the legendary Sandkvie Studio, where the band - together with producer Mattias Bärjed (guitarist in The Soundtrack of Our Lives and Refused), along with Mikael Lyander and Samuel Wizèn at the mixing desk - captured the true DNA of the group in the moment.
