Stream 'Eden', the superb new album from Bam Spacey

Tomorrow sees the release of Eden, the second full-length album from Swedish outfit Bam Spacey - but today you can stream the full album exclusively via Best Fit.

We've already covered the first release from the album in the shape of the stunning techno-meets dreampop of the title track, and the rest of the album is just as good.

Of the album, Magnus Johansson told us "Eden is a story, it’s the last two years of my life, it’s looking back at when I was young, it’s looking at what that has meant to me. It’s sentimental, it’s confessional, it’s anonymous. It’s a pop record. Going through the last two years has been very tough, there has been break-ups and reconciliations, a lot of breaking down and trying to get back up. So in that sense, I guess this is a concept album. It follows a story, but the story could be about anyone. There was a time a year ago when the band was no more, when life seemed to be no more, everything important was crumbling before me. But my problems aren’t mine, they’re everyone’s, everyone who can claim they lived at all. In the context of how the world in large is slowly falling apart, these problems are the small pieces, but they are the everyday life, they are what defines us. We need to give up and move on, two modes forever interchanging and intertwining. I can’t close my eyes to what’s happening around me, just as little as I can close my eyes to what’s happening within me. This record is about everything and nothing, about the beginning and the end."

Eden is out tomorrow via Hybris.
