Biography
Växjö, Sweden (2000 – present)
Masters of the celestial epic, SURROUNDED, creates atmospheres of fragile beauty by blending surrealist lyrics, mournful melodies, orchestral flourishes and spacey experimentalism with a subtle, cinematic sway from lo-fi to hi-fi.
Encompassing a strangely beautiful rainbow of sound and emotion that twinkles beneath layers of cello, mellotron, radio chatter and synthesizers, their debut SAFETY IN NUMBERS envelopes the listener with an entrancing collection of songs that range from the innocent to the insane, the troubled to the tender, the sweet to the sad.
Surrounded emerged with their debut album ‘SAFETY IN NUMBERS’ following a yearlong recording session deep in Swedish forests eight years ago. Now signed to One Little Indian with superb new record ‘The Nautilus Years’ receiving glowing reports, the band return to the UK for a second set of shows the week beginning April 7th.
Marten Rydell (vocals, guitar)
Marcus Knutsson (guitar)
Tom Malmros (bass)
Johannes Linder (drums)
Erik Gustafsson (keys)
Recent praise for ‘The Nautilus Years’:
“- Wears its massive heart on its sleeve. Do your soul a favour and buy it.” 9/10 – Drowned in Sound (DiScover Album Of The Month)
“These Nordic shoegazers have their heads solely in the stars.” – NME
“Majestic music” – The Guardian
“Astoundingly stirring…a moving and ultimately all-consuming experience.” 9/10
– Rock Sound

This band are incredible. What does everyone think of the Safe Tomrrow Sun? It's gonna be the next single. I'm hoping there'll be some b-sides with it too =)

i just bought this crazy shit off deep elm records' site. paid 30 bucks and got 30 cd's (mostly LPs, some EPs) but its a ridiculous deal. they came bundled up in the cd sleeves and i landed one of the surround records safety in numbers. the cd's you get are random but you might wanna try your luck... regardless its an absurd deal. i just got them in the mail today and ave been listening nonstop
