Press release 2006-11-10: Leopold releases their 2nd album on December the 4th:
"Keep it together now, it's gonna be ok, keep it together now, that's the
only way", Måns Wiklund sings on Friend of a friend. This seems like a
justified appeal since the album has taken three years to finalize. Leopold,
based in Gothenburg, Sweden, have during this time been in and out of
different studios and members have been involved in other bands. But Leopold
have used the time and struggle to create yet another beautiful album.
The 2003 debut album, Dreaming is for anyone, was described as "one of the most beautiful albums of the century" (Parasol Records). If that album was boy room ponderings softly spoken over a pot of tea, then Friend of a friend is the soundtrack of the journey away from that.
The beautiful melancholy from the debut is still present, but on Friend of a friend Leopold expresses a wider range of emotions. With personal lyrics and a sound based on epic indie pop, this album will attract fans of Mojave 3, Wilco, Badly Drawn Boy, Lambchop, Belle & Sebastian and Mercury Rev.
