Until The Sadness Is Gone

Friendly Fire Recordings is extremely proud to announce the North American release of Swedish band David & the Citizens' album Until the Sadness is Gone. It is a truly remarkable album: jubilant, melodic, and intelligent. Lovingly arranged, lyrically moving, and distinctively Scandinavian. Heartstring-tugging, but still a hell of a lot of fun. From the whooping klezmer clarinet on opening track "The End" (which works surprisingly well in the context of an indie pop song) to the bouncy harmonies of "New Direction," Until the Sadness is Gone is a confident and catchy release from one of Sweden's greatest exports since Ikea.
