[news] MaidaVale will release Madness Is Too Pure on the 23rd of March

MaidaVale - Madness Is Too Pure

The Sign Records

23 March 2018

Since the release of their debut album "Tales of the Wicked West" in August 2016,  MaidaVale has toured Europe extensively.The live sound of MaidaVale has always leaned towards the experimental scene of the ’60s and ’70s, but with this new album, the band have worked with producer Jari Haapalainen which has led them further down the kraut and experimental path.

The music on ”Madness Is Too Pure" is deeply rooted in the monotone union between the rhythm section of Johanna Hansson and Linn Johannesson and the hypnotizing vocals of Matilda Roth. Adding Sofia Ströms dazzling guitar playing gives depth to the musical landscape of MaidaVale. ’Madness Is Too Pure’ moves MaidaVale closer to bands such as NEU!, Amon Düül II, Public Image Ltd and Siouxsie and the Banshees.


The album was produced and mixed by Jari Haapalainen who has previously worked with artists such as Ed Harcourt, Camera Obscura, Johnossi, Sahara Hotnights, True Moon and The (International) Noise Conspiracy. The album was recorded during six days in November 2017 at The End Studio outside of Lund, Sweden, engineered by Tommy Tift (Vånna Inget, True Moon).
