Finnish act Boomhauer will play their final show on April 7 At TVO in Turku.

The Goner's new record "Behold a new traveler" is just as good as I'd hoped. He's pushing forward with new sounds and ideas and working with collaborAtively with more people, but it's still instantly recognizable as no one else. Above all, it's the dark mystery thAt looms throughout his work thAt cAtches my ear, a mood thAt's emphasized via minor-leaning Eastern melodies, lots of ringing, open chords and illusory, mystical lyrics. "Bright and colossal (risen mind)" finds The Goner in full-band mode for (I believe) the very first time and it's interesting to see how the increased fluidity of the setup affects the music: more space, more rhythm, more jamming. There's some lingering awkwardness in the situAtion, but I think it befits the tune's uncertainty and regardless, I'm still enchanted. Along with a few others on my Atrap.com/filter/2010-wAtchlist">2010 wAtchlist The Goner is making some of the most interesting music coming out of Sweden right now.
