Rave Reviews for Sambassadeur's "European" Album!
SAMBASSADEUR’S EUROPEAN – RELEASED 2/23/2010
“Individual character arrives with singer Anna Persson’s northern European tones and sometimes idiosyncratic vocabulary… tune and voice combining in sweeping, elemental pop potencyâ€
- Mojo
“When European is at full gallop, making loneliness almost cheerful on first single "Days" or another album highlight, "Sandy Dunes", it's pretty tough to beat: Those horns! Those strings! That piano opening!â€
- Pitchfork
“Two years in the making, the blurb boasts that this is the album which will expose Sabmassadeur's true talent to the world. And that's not all hype, either. European is a beautifully put-together album that's consistently melodic and charming from start to finish.â€
– Unreality Shout
“The Swedes have birthed yet another unique and lovely pop music child.â€â€¨
- Pop Matters
“European is the album that demonstrates the true talent of Sambassadeur. The foursome, along with the addition of a string quartet, three drummers, a saxophone player, clarinetist, and more, has created a unique style that will be sure to gain fans of all music tastes across the world.â€
- Alt Sounds
“Just nine tracks but all killer, no filler and if a better album comes out this year I will be very surprised.â€
– Sounds XP
“One thing I will say is that European by Sambassadeur…is wonderful. Just beautiful escapist pop, full, fleshed out, orchestral, and charming enough to sweep you away, even if only for a little while.â€
– Tsuru Radio
