When metalwas in its infancy bands had more varied input to their music.These were musicians who’d not grown up on metal music as it didn’texist, so their take on it had many different facets and albums hadacoustic songs, jazzy songs, bluesy songs, progressive songs… Iwant Dead Kosmonaut to be that sort of band, so that when youlisten to one of our songs you don’t really know what’s comingnext. Not that we’re a nostalgia band, using only old amps andstuff, nor do we copy and paste from the Seventies. The sound ofDead Kosmonaut is completely contemporary.
Mattias Reinholdsson, Dead Kosmonaut

As afollow-up to their widely-acclaimed 2017 debut album Expect NothingSweden’s Dead Kosmonaut have recorded a four-track EP entitledRekviem. As bassist and composer Mattias Reinholdsson is proud toadmit, the key to Dead Kosmonaut is variety. Rekviem is metal,certainly, but the EP showcases the genre in all its gloriousdiversity. Of the four tracks on offer, hook-laden opener Frozen InTime is the newest and went under the title UFO Song when Mattiasfirst demoed it. Lyrics were then provided by John Shamus Gaffneyof Sinister Realm, who came up with a science fiction-orientatedconcept. The elegiac House Of Lead (Nobody’s Home) is a reworkingof the track House Of Lead from Expect Nothing, while the other twosongs could have appeared on the band’s debut had things panned outdifferently. The instrumental Skyhooks And Sound Mirrors lost outto Grimeton when it came to deciding on what to record for ExpectNothing, and the spiralling, doom-laden title track Rekviem was, inMattias’s words too extreme for their debut. It hardly has anylyrics and it’s more cinematic than any other Dead Kosmonaut song.The song came to be many years ago when both my grandfathers diedwithin a couple of months. I was much younger at the time and thelyric reflects that even when people close to your heart dies lifegoes on. It was a bit of a bleak insight, but that’s how I felt atthe time, and still do.
