Järnnätter

A man who lives in the Swedish countryside (or suburbs, depending who you ask), the person behind Civilistjävel! has long favored small, simple synth setups and has made a gang of fantastic records under this name. Järnnätter roughly means “iron nights” and refers to frost nights during the growing season. This album is on a delivery path of the gods, the same route that dropped off something with Joy Division’s Closer and donated to Rhythm & Sound’s first few twelve-inches. This is north country dub, the sound of a lonely soul trying to pray with frozen hands.
