Moa Holmsten - Bruised Arms and Broken Rhythm (CD) - CD

Details: The songs of Bruce Springsteen might seem like an odd choice for the Swedish recording artist, Moa Holmsten. After fronting the heavy metal band, Meldrum, and then releasing two dynamic and avant-garde albums of her own songs (Do You Want Me, Death? and All Blade, No Handle) Moa Holmsten and Tony Naima went into the studio in 2013 and emerged with a startlingly creative reworking of the Springsteen classic, 'Badlands.' They had such a good time creating this cover song, they decided to try another and another and another. In the end, they had complete fourteen tunes spanning across Springsteen's entire career - from the obscure to some of his most well known - but always in a completely fresh and original way.
