6. There Is A Light That Never Goes Out
The definition of anthemic. For Swedes of a certain generation also forever associated with the painful funeral scene in the final episode of the great tv series ’Spung’.

This one was on constant repeat the year I was 5. It wasn’t until much later I found out Agnetha had also been in a band.

1. Massive Attack: Protection
In 94 everything MA touched turned into gold. Standout ’Three’ finds Nicolette marvel at the beauty of the world while staring inmentionable grief right in the eye.
Tracks: Three, Better Things, Euro Child, Sly

2. Suede: Dog Man Star
Blur, Oasis and Radiohead all made nice retro pop/rock in the mid ’90s, but this… this is definitely something else.
Tracks: Introducing The Band, Heroine, Daddy’s Speeding, The Asphalt World

3. The Future Sound Of London: ISDN
At first it just seemed too wild and untamable, but something kept pulling me back again and again. Ultimately, a multifaceted, full-fledged classic revealed itself.
Tracks: Just A Fuckin’ Idiot, Slider, Dirty Shadows, Egypt, Amoeba

4. Stina Nordenstam: And She Closed Her Eyes
A triumph of melancholia and understated musicianship, Stina’s sophomore effort is one of the all-time greatest 🇸🇪 pop albums. Ingmar Bergman’s spirit indeed.
Tracks: When Debbie’s Back From Texas, Viewed From The Spire, Fireworks

5. Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds: Let Love In
Imo Nick’s undisputed career peak. This album marked the start of my Nick Cave obsession, which would last for at least three years.
Tracks: Do You Love Me?, Loverman, I Let Love In

6. Electronic Eye: Closed Circuit
Back in the day I picked the cd up from the bargain bin at B&W (like 🇸🇪 Tesco), and it’s now a real rarity. More importantly, it contains some of Richard H Kirk’s finest music! Available on youtube 👌🎶
Tracks: Counter Insurgent, Cloud Chamber Dub

7. Autechre: Amber
My mate bought it when it came out and, strange as it might sound now, it was the most far-out electronic music I’d heard up to that point. The year after, Rob & Sean would raise the bar once again 😁.
Tracks: Foil, Glitch, Piezo

8. Saint Etienne: Tiger Bay
Dub, girl group melodies, gentle techno and cinematic strings. Absolutely adorable.
Tracks: Urban Clearway, Former Lover, Marble Lions, Cool Kids Of Death

9. Nine Inch Nails: The Downward Spiral
Not only did Trent Reznor create the most angular techno thrash album to date, but he also infused a healthy dose of blues vibe into the mix, making the final result strikingly original.
Tracks: Mr Self Destruct, Ruiner, A Warm Place
