On Saltmätargatan, Tussilago returns to the street — and studio — where their musical journey first began. Named after the tucked-away Stockholm location that served as their original creative haven, the album is both a homecoming and a reinvention. After a five-year absence, the band — Jesper Hättander, Pierre Riddez, Rickard Renström, and Samuel Lundin — reunited with long-time collaborator and producer Petter Winnberg (Amason) to make a record rooted in improvisation, intuition, and emotional honesty. The process was shaped by stillness and movement: initial sketches captured at Saltmätargatan evolved during a quiet retreat in Dalarna, far from the city’s chaos. The result is a sonic landscape that ebbs between urban tension and pastoral calm. From the slow-burning opener to the explosive energy of “Teatern” and the lush melancholy of “Time Moves,” the album captures a band reconnecting not just with each other, but with the reason they started making music in the first place. It’s a cinematic, reflective, and deeply textural journey — filled with both longing and light.
