MAKTHAVERSKAN + "Very Special Guest | LIVE

Makthaverskan defies traditional genre definitions. Their latest album, *För Allting*, flits between blissful pop and angst-ridden punk, but it’s never content to settle on any one identity for long. As Pitchfork writes of the band, the Sweden-based group of five former schoolmates makes “music for the margins,” and here in the spaces of *För Allting* lies a restless, unwavering need to explore.

*För Allting* signals a new beginning: it’s the first of the band’s recordings to feature a producer (Hannes Ferm of HOLY). Propelling the band further into an identity that one will never fully grasp, every second of *För
Allting brings something previously unheard of from the group. There are drum machines, synthesizers, and a blissful, shimmering self-awareness that what they’re ultimately creating is dream-pop for realists. Makthaverskan is unafraid to confront the contradictions between beauty and rage; instead, they transform them into something completely new.
