Shotgun Language (The Tallest Man On Earth meets Buddy Holly)

This is d.i.y. all the way but like they say in the liner notes it’s strewn with emotions and a rough hewn honesty. Shotgun Language is Gustav Berry from Linköping.

This is not tight and this is not clean but it has something, it has nerve.
These songs don’t compile a record. This is a collection of work and songwriting, the first rough and honest expressions of songs – a couple of moments and feelings caught on tape.
This is nerve pt. I.

Through the use of home recording and a couple of nice retro guitars he is able to recreate that warm fuzzy sound of the 50′s. Here’s a nice sampling of his work. Look forward to the debut record from this exciting young swede.
