Infruset

INFRUSET is the sixth studio album by Swedish band Mando Diao, produced by Björn Olsson, and the band's first album in their mother tongue Swedish. In 2011, on the occasion of Swedish poet Gustaf Fröding's (1860-1911) hundredth death year, Gustaf Norén was asked to set one of his poems to music. The beauty and honesty of Fröding's poetry as well as his eccentric and anguished way of living was appealing to the band. Fröding's poetry is telling stories about the beauty of nature, about love and life's challenges. Gustaf Norén and Björn Dixgård chose ten of his poems; the album's recording took place in an old barn that was transformed into a studio, and was finished after a few days only. The songs are slow and melancholic ballads. The band is using acoustic guitars and piano as main instruments; drums, bass and strings are providing the smooth and gentle background. The main focus is on Fröding's words, instruments and voices are emphasizing the melancholy within the lyrics. Linnéa Dixgård, sister of Björn Dixgård, performs the song "Titania". On October 28, 2012, the first public performance of Infruset was celebrated as cinema event with broadcasts in cinemas and theaters in Swed…
