Amateur Hour - Går I Kras LP (Appetite, 2025)
Or as we in Finland call it: “The Collapse SONATA in Maj:or: Sadness”

OH gOd. Why is my heart melting like a cheese left on a radiator?? Why do I smell wet soil and industrial lemon cleaner at the same time??? Welcome to Går I Kras, the 4th (FOURTH!!!) celestial emission from Amateur Hour aka the holy triad of Hugo Randulv, Julia Bjernelind, and Dan Johansson (yes that Dan... your uncle’s cousin’s noise hero).

This record is... a smoosh. A smoosh of... things. Lo-fi lullabies duct-taped to scorched circuits. Synths that feel like they’ve been drinking cough syrup in a field of orchids. Guitars? Tasty.

Imagine The Cannanes were pixelated, then printed out with a fax machine submerged in club soda, then reassembled in GarageBand on a 2008 MacBook with the shift key stuck. That’s the vibe!!!! Kind of. It’s dreamy?? Sure! Like if dream pop had a sinus infection but still wanted to make out.

And here’s the kicker, bubs: this one’s catchy. TOO catchy. Songs that worm into your amygdala and start folding laundry in your memory palace. Choruses? Yes. But deconstructed like IKEA furniture eaten by termites and rebuilt by Julia with a soldering iron and no instructions.

They’ve made their most DANK record and yet it still sounds like a robot crying in a Swedish parking garage. Eleven (11!!!!) tracks. One poster. One edition of 500. ONLY. That’s like... not enough for everyone in Gothenburg, let alone the planet XD. 

In conclusion:
GÅR I KRAS = POSTGBGNOISEPOP FROM A PLANET WITH TOO MUCH PINE SAP.

Play it backwards and you might hear the sound of your youth exploding in slow motion.
