Lucifer’s Aid aka. Carl Nilsson is one of the most hard working persons in the alteternative industrial scene. But what many dont know is that Carl´s no.1 favourite artist is Bruce Springsteen. So what better way to pay tribute to “The boss” than with three tracks taken from the classic album “Nebraska”.
Carl Nilsson about the EP: “Nebraska may seem to be the overall opposite of my music. But there is a darkness and monotonous sound in both Lucifer’s Aid and Bruce Springsteen’s songs. And especially on his album Nebraska. The sound and the expression on that album have always fascinated me. Nebraska was released in 1982 and it was recorded at a four channel porta studio. The strength of the album is precisely the three chords and the lyrics that sit deep with the listener. There are songs about hopelessness, loneliness, longing and sometimes a bit of hope.”
I have always had a great admiration for Bruce Springsteen’s music and have long thought about making interpretations of his music. The album Nebraska is very close to me. It was not the first record I heard from Springsteen but it was the one that touched me the most. And it has followed me since my early teens.
With this EP I wanted to put my personal touch on Bruce Springsteen’s songs. But at the same time not lose the nerve that are in the original songs.
