Album DescriptionAccording to songwriter and guitarist Martin Abrahamsson, D"da Fallet is Vapnet's first traditional popskiva-- its first true pop album. He created the bulk of the band's excellent full-length debut, Jag Vet Hur Man V?ntar, and the follow-up, N?got D?ligt Nytt Har H?nt, on his home computer, but with the addition of the band's first full-time drummer, Vapnet decided to record its third album in a proper studio, hiring Mattias Glav? to produce. However, D"da Fallet (which translates to "the dead fall") represents no dramatic musical sidestep. Instead, it continues in roughly the same headphones-pop vein as their previous efforts: The band still draws from the formalism of Swedish pop and the florid movement of Swedish dance to locate all sorts of musical possibilities in its intricate arrangements. Glav?, who worked on recent albums by Sambassadeur and Jens Lekman, adds just a touch of reverb to the instruments, giving the songs an added depth of sound that reinforces both their exuberance and their melancholy.
