Nina Nesbitt - Älskar (COOKLP800) LP Green Vinyl
Made in the show of the introspection, loss and fear of lockdown, 'Alskar' celebrates life in all of its complexities as well as love in every form imaginable. As we've heard from its previous singles 'Dinner Table' and 'When You Lose Someone', 'Alskar' (meaning "to love" in Swedish, a reflection of Nina's half-Swedish heritage) shimmers with both tender, intimate ballads and huge escapist '80s-tinged bangers that beg for the dancefloor. Nina wrote or co-wrote every song that features on the album, and produced or co-produced many of its tracks.
Nina says, "Making this album was a completely different experience to anything I've made before, although a lot of the music was created remotely, I feel that I've processed so much and learnt a lot about the relationships in my life during the last few years. I wanted to capture all types of love in their raw forms, whether it be romantic, heartbreak, friendship, coming of age, familial or self love."
