MOLLY NILSSON with Air Waves
Extreme is Molly Nilsson's tenth studio album. Recorded in 2019 and throughout the 2020 global pandemic at home in Berlin, Extreme is a departure for Nilsson, an explosion of angry love. It's an album of anthems for the jilted generation, soaked with joy and offering solace, bristling with distorted, Metal guitars and planet-sized choruses that bring light to the dark centre of the galaxy. It's an album of the times, by the times and for the people. It's a record about power. About how to fight it, how to take it and how to share it. Molly Nilsson's biggest, boldest and most vital album to date, Extreme is about power. Against the love of power and for the power of love.

Molly Nilsson has been running her own label and producing her own music since 2007, releasing 3 albums, several eps and producing evocative videos that elaborate on the themes she is obsessed by. The music released under own moniker is a heartfelt rendering of romanticized pop music, gloriously DIY in method and honest in practice. Clearly influenced by the minimal synthesizer pop of the 80s but also adept at timeless melancholic song writing, each song presents a compact sound world which twinkles with a sense of loneliness and the warmth of its opposite. Since her first DIY releases Nilsson's music has been gathering pace in the underground pop world's consciousness. Earlier this year John Maus acknowledged her songwriting by duetting with her on 'Hey Moon,' a Nilsson original that was included on his third album 'We Must Become The Pitiless Censors Of Ourselves.' A full European and North American tour is planned in support of her 4th full-lengther 'History, 'which was released on the 14th of December 2011 through Dark Skies Association.
