The title of the album "Tvåhundra ord för ensamhet", which roughly translates to "Two Hundred Words for Solitude", is of course a play on the persistent myth of the Inuit’s having two hundred words for snow. But this album revolves around how Sweden used to be the loneliest country in the world, meaning the country with most single households in the world. And in many ways. we are a lonely and quiet country, keeping things in to keep things out. At the heart of it, this is an album about loneliness as a fundamental part of the human condition.
