Wildbirds & Peacedrums

Rivers (CD)

Rivers is the mesmerising third album by Sweden's Wildbirds & Peacedrums, combining the two limited edition vinyl only 12" EPs, Retina and Iris, which were released in May and June 2010 respectively. Characteristically, Wildbirds emphasise instinct, emotional rawness and purity of expression over perfection. The whole album was recorded and mixed in Reykjavík in a single week, and retains an intentionally spontaneous, live feel. A new sense of restraint and control is apparent, compared to Wildbirds' previous albums (2008's Heartcore and 2009's The Snake) and their blistering live shows, consciously bringing Mariam Wallentin's lyrical concerns into clearer focus. While the two EPs are sonically quite distinct, they complement each other with unifying themes of reflection, light and water. Heard in the context of the album, the new songs are revealed as an extraordinary body of work.
