My Modern Museum

Music video by Ernst Markus Stein. Song taken from History (DSA 2011).

 

Baby, sometimes I don’t understand you
You’re the abstract art in my Modern Museum
Baby, sometimes we fall apart
but the ruins of my heart stand like the Colosseum
I hope you die, by my side
the two of us at the exact same time
I hope we die, long from now
the two of us at the exact same time

 
Maybe it’s all beyond control but baby you can have my soul
I hope you die, by my side
Maybe it’s all ages away but I can’t help but think of the day
I hope we die at the exact same time
 
Baby, your lungs are bigger than a football field
I’m the hooligan of your heart
sometimes we win and sometimes we lose our dreams
but I‘ll always wear the colours of your team
 
Baby, you’re the coolest moon when the nights begun
I’m a goth in the sun and we can sleep through the summer days
I know you think I’m morbid when i say
I hope you die, by my side
the two of us at the exact same time
I hope we die, long from now
the two of us at the exact same time

IRL tour posters

A big thanks to VGKids and Warpaint Studios in Ypsilanti, MI who designed and printed these awesome tour posters for Molly Nilsson’s In Real Life Tour 2012. Check out their websites! Not only do they look great hanging on a wall, they also fold in half and slip perfectly into a LP sleeve. Very limited edition. Keep a look out for them in your town!

SILVER pt. II

After more than a year of slumber SILVER has awoken from a deep tape sleep. This Greatest Hits Compilation was originally released as a Christmas Special 2010, containing 10 evergreens from Molly Nilsson’s first 3 albums and also 2 previously unreleased tracks. This release is limited to an edition of 100 copies, all handnumbered by the artist herself (as always). When we first brought it out we had to spend long nights awake listening to the same tracks over and over again, drinking out of bottles, whilst recording over used cassettes purchased from thriftshops. Although this may sound like fun (we thought so too to begin with) it soon got tiring and the production was put on ice after only a dozen copies had been made.

Until now. Thanks to machines, located somewhere on the British Isles who did the work for us. This second round of SILVER is the same as the first in the regard of content and edition but since they are professionally recorded and printed they will actually play at the right speed. (This may be a good thing or a bad thing depending on your approach to music as a commodity).  Please note that this release is made on cassette only.

Side A Silver, When Boys Don’t Call, 8000 days, The Lonely, We’re Never Coming Home, Won’t Somebody Take Me Out Tonight
Side B Europa, More Certain than Death, In the Mood for a Tattoo, Last Forever, Truth, A Song They Won’t Be Playing on the Radio.

Was it merely a coincidence that Shacklewell Arms where Molly Nilsson played a show last night is door to door with another Lighthouse Studios?
