Winter Took His Life – “You Know What It’s Like To Be Alone And Shut Down” (Bless This Press, Sept. 27)

Winter Took His Life (here) has a new record out on Bless This Press. You Know What It’s Like To Be Alone And Shut Down will be her (Susanna Brandin from Gothemberg) most produced and complete recording to date. On the song “Your Side” she brings her whispy vocals and fingerpicked guitar to this sentimental ballad. For WTHL it’s not the lyrics or song structure that put her firmly in the indie music camp but more her ambiguous delivery. To compete on the radio in any country, especially Sweden, you’ve got to belt out repetitive chorus and be propelled by a nasty beat. WTHL, as the band name and record title partly imply, seems willing to take a different, more lonely, path with her music.
