Too Many Lemons is an attempt to make sense of the world while we’re still living in it.
Across 20 songs and three parts, we move through the streets, people and small absurdities of everyday life — looking at the present from the inside rather than trying to make sense of it from a distance. The record grew out of our lives in Malmö: its people, its contradictions, its beauty and its darker sides. In that sense, it has become both a love letter to the city we live in and a pretty serious questioning of why the hell we’re living the way we do.
The album moves between the personal and the political, the intimate and the absurd. It’s about power, money, war, loneliness, desire, work, consumption and the strange ways we adapt to a world that often feels completely fucking insane.
Musically, we wanted to make something that could hold all of that at once — songs to dance to, fall asleep to, run to, make love to, get angry to or take into the streets.
Too Many Lemons is not a solution. It’s a soundtrack to being here, now.
