The band's oral history book is out now in English, so I made it and them the subject of this week's Substack newsletter.

thank you for pointing this out; book looks great. hopefully my family also reads burning ambulance and are getting some good ideas for christmas presents

this revive has made me realize that I can buy the LP-only tracks from that huge live box digitally via Bandcamp, hell yeah

I think there are even another two tracks that are digital-only? https://tradgrasochstenar.bandcamp.com/album/tr-d-gr-s-och-stenar

Hoping my book gets here soon.

On another note, does anyone know anything about the label Arcangelo? Amazon shows listings for three upcoming releases from International Harvester on the label - Remains 1, Remains 2 and Remains 3. Looks like a CD reissue of the Remains box set, but weird that it's broken into three discs @ $32 each.

Ordered my book the other day, very happy for that!

Discogs says Arcangelo is a Japanese label specializing in prog reissues and archival stuff, so this could be a legit license (and could explain the price).

Thanks, just curious. I've been hoping that would get a CD reissue at some point.

Me, too, since there was never any digital version at all — the files I downloaded have (very mild) vinyl crackle because they come from someone ripping their (presumably brand-new at the time) LPs.

Recorded over their two day residency, 9.9.16 spans the pastoral, the brooding, and the free-form progg moments of Trad Gras in one oozing zip folder. Their seemingly endless, bucolic bass lines and humble DIY approach create an ever expanding atmosphere of good will - these are surely the nicest guys in rock? The opening 'track' is a 25 minute wigged out version of Harvester's 'När Lingonen Mognar', and 'Stina' is a never before recorded folk-rock track written by the band's close friend Mats G Bengtsson. Spread the word my friends.
