For their third full-length, the pride and joy of Jönköping, Sweden, aka I’m From Barcelona, have looked to Billy Corgan for a bit of inspiration. Ok, not really, but the Emanuel Lundgren-led outfit is following in the footsteps of the Pumpkins and celebrating the release of a rather extensive brand new album by giving away each of its songs online.
In fact, as the story actually goes, I’m From Barcelona was inspired by another rather high-profile outfit. While touring around the world over the last three years, the ever expanding membership of the band has been working on the upcoming “27 Songs from Barcelona”. Inspired by Kiss’ simultaneous release of four solo albums in 1978, the end result is something called 27 Songs from Barcelona and it will feature, you guessed it, 27 songs, one solo song for every member in I’m from Barcelona.
The album will be released as a limited edition triple vinyl on January 27th. Beginning that same day, one song per day will be available as a download on imfrombarcelona.com.
