Henrik Ivarsson, the soul behind Morris i Motljus, lives on the island of Gotland near Stockholm in the Baltic Sea. If you check out this place on Google Maps, you'll find yourself in a stunning green landscape with well-maintained houses, kilometers of open space and a lot of ruins. It has a rich history and looks a bit like heaven on earth to one who lives in a suburb in ugly, crammed Flandres, so it doesn't come as a surprise to read that Gotland is a tourist-magnet. 

Maybe it's this landscape that inspired Ivarsson for his compositions, or should I call them ballads? There are three of them on 'Kalkstensbefläckad'. Despite of their short length, each one is an epic mixture of cinematic post-rock or atmospheric doom with black metal and neoclassical influences. The perfect soundtrack for a storm over Gotland or one going on in your own mind. No wonder it's impossible to pick a favourite track... I could put this EP on endless repeat for days and still wouldn't get tired of it.

It's clear that Ivarsson is a musical genius. He has six years of experience with this project and it's about bloody time that his music got discovered. So go ahead and check this out, really man, it's worthwhile...
