Review

Spin (p.121) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "Swedish-born songwriter Jens Lekman has a penchant for grand pronouncements, and his pop opuses are rife with strings, choirs, and samples..."
Entertainment Weekly (p.63) - "Lekman may be one of Sweden's finest exports....The album's sound is a swirl of sparkly '60s orchestration and horns..." -- Grade: A-
Uncut (p.110) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[H]is lyrics are Cole Porter witty, and his major-key songcraft delicious."
Magnet (p.101) - "The third full-length from guileless Swedish heartthrob Jens Lekman is chock full of all manner of swingin' fabulousness."
No Depression (p.73) - "NIGHT FALLS OVER KORTEDALA displays the artist's flawless command of every last syllable, sound and flourish, with impressive attention to detail."

Title Note

Personnel: El Perro Del Mar, Magnus Carlsson, Frida Hyvonen, Michael Leonhart, Ulrika Mild, Emma Bates (vocals); Clare Canzoneri (harp); Elsa Wikstrom (violin); Ida Rosen (viola); Mikaela Robsahm (cello); Ellen Hjalmarsson (strings); Frida Thurfjell, Bjorn Almgren (saxophone); Kristin Lidell (trumpet); Karim Krantz (trombone); Stefan Sporsen (brass); Tammy Karlsson (drums, bongos); Markus Gorsch (drums); Lars-Erik Grimelund (kettle drum); Viktor Sjoberg, Ben Swanson.

In addition to being one of the best albums of 2005, the Secretly Canadian compilation OH YOU'RE SO SILENT JENS proved Swedish singer-songwriter Jens Lekman to be an artist of unusual talent, wit, poignancy, and charm. Those qualities continue to flourish on Lekman's 2007's studio effort NIGHT FALLS OVER KORTEDALA.

NIGHT FALLS is less lo-fi than the artist's previous work; in fact, the production is downright lush, featuring full-bodied arrangements that drip pop sunshine a la Burt Bacharach. But the central focus is Lekman's songs, which are as quaint, moving, pitch-perfect, and beautifully crafted as anything he's done.
