Riddarna – The Power of Love


After the explosive comeback with ’Hål i marken’, Riddarna now follow it up with ’The Power of Love’ – a powerful, emotional and dynamic song that shows a new side of the band. Here, intensity and vulnerability meet in a magnificent trio soundscape. The song depicts love as a destructive but irresistible force of nature. To consciously give in to something you know can destroy you. Shop links: https://frontl.ink/nqyok8m

The song is taken from their upcoming fifth album ’Utomjordingar’ which will be released March 6 – the band’s first in nine years. The album contains both intensity and emotional depth, with songs that vary between strong expressions and softer moments. The result is a Riddarna that sounds more mature, but also more uncompromising than ever.

The album is produced and mixed by Hasse Rosbach, with experience from, among others, Turbonegro and Highasakite. Rosbach recently moved to Gotland, just a stone’s throw from Riddarna’s Edward Forslund, and the collaboration became the starting point for a new creative chapter. After almost a decade of silence, Riddarna have reunited in full force and with ’The Power of Love’ they show that they are not only back, but that the return marks the beginning of a new, creative phase for the band.

They will be touring this spring again and since they definitely should be enjoyed live on stage don’t miss them.
