The ignition was a spark of inspiration from TV-series Twin Peaks and movie Blade Runner. The Swedish twee-noise/post-rock trio ”Svarta Stugan” started in 2012 with the release of their self-titled debut ”Svarta Stugan Ep”. The debut was a blend of cinematic themes, dreamy soundscapes and their signature twee-noise sound. Their second EP, “EP2: A Mutation and a madness”, was released the following year. EP2 told the tale of a man dragged down into HP Lovecraftian nightmare as reality started to mutate around him. Facing the demons of his past, he did in the end return to the surface but as a mere shadow of his former self. EP2 had a darker sound than it´s predecessor.
This fall the trilogy of EP:s will be complete with ”EP3: Aspects of our future selves”. Once again the influences of Blade Runner and Twin Peaks can be heard but there is also sounds reminiscing of bands like Radiohead and God Speed You! Black Emperor. The set of songs on this EP can be seen as paintings, structures or silhouettes (if you will) of different aspects of our future lives.
