Staff Picks: Shitkid - Sort Stjerne!

For fans of: Misfit DIY Rock

What they're saying: Writer Gabrielle Poccia nicely conveys the Shitkid sound in her recent review at Riff Magazine: “While ShitKid’s visual brand is getting drunk in the woods, the musical sound is getting drunk at the beach. At times dark and melodic, at others surfy and upbeat, her lyrics are concise and sarcastic, getting to the core of loneliness, young love, and a desperate inability to control one’s emotions.” Steve Janes at With Guitars had this to say of the artist: “Åsa Söderqvist’s ShitKid has been one of the most interesting acts around, constantly defying expectations and breaking conventions.” And here’s New Noise mag on Sort Stjerne! being Shitkid’s swan song: “even if this is the final chapter in the ShitKid saga, it’s a very fine and satisfying farewell.”

What we say: The final output from our beloved Shitkid is a smattering of unreleased tracks from throughout her career. I believe it's a fantastic last release. You will be missed, Shitkid! -K
