Album DescriptionAvailable in:
Peter Bjorn and John is the first album by Swedish indie-pop band Peter Bjorn and John. Its style takes influences from baroque-pop, post-punk and soul ('From Now On'), and it is colloquially referred to by the band as 'The Red Album'. Self-titled, it is the only album by the band not to follow their tradition of naming albums with two words, the first with two syllables and the last with one. However, it does adhere to their rule of always having three of something, if not the band members themselves, on the front cover. The Wichita Recordings re-release included five bonus tracks from the album's four singles; 'Firing Blanks' & 'Don't Be Skew' from the 'I Don't Know What I Want Us To Do' single, 'Le Crique' from the 'People They Know' single, and 'The Fan' and 'Saturday Night At The Parties' from the '100 M Of Hurdles' EP. Session musicians appear on some tracks, as the band originally intended to be a quartet. The album and its singles feature artwork designed by Eric Segol.
