So, as many know I'm probably Magnus Karlsson's biggest whipping boy on here which I'm not ashamed of. Although, he's done so many albums one could forgive him for a slight drop in quality. We have seen that with the likes of Allen/Lande, that Heart Healer crap and even his Freefall project. I will say last years Ginevra album was pretty enjoyable and the last Ferryman album was really excellent so he's still got it. Nothing comes close to the Battle but nothing will.
Saying all that, I'm absolutely loving the latest Freefall album. I wasn't sold on the first single or two but on a whole, this album is fucking brilliant. There's old school Last Tribe feels going on a lot and overall the songwriting is just interesting, fresh and while following his usual formula, it's still really catchy and getting lots of repeats from me with enough variety to stay interested. In a time where I really don't buy CD's anymore, might have to hunt this one down. It also gets better as the album goes on too. The closer is one of the best songs he's done in a long long time. I'd even say this may be the best thing since the first Freefall album or the third Allen/Lande album. He's put a bit of effort into his solos too on this one which were getting pretty samey and you could tell lately he was just pulling out one or two take solos on a whim.
