This Is Head

**This Is Head** is a Swedish electronic/indie outfit hailing from Malmö, known for their hypnotic grooves and genre-blurring sound. Formed in the mid-2000s, the band—Adam Grahn (vocals/synths), Ulrik Bruzelius (bass), Simon Rideborg (guitar), and Erik Welén (drums)—mixes krautrock rhythms, post-punk edge, and shimmering synthscapes into a danceable, cerebral vibe. Their 2012 breakthrough album *The Album ID* solidified their reputation for crafting tight, atmospheric jams, while later releases like *X* (2015) and *En annan strand* (2021) lean further into minimalist electronics and moody, textural experimentation.

A staple of Scandinavia’s live circuit, they’ve toured with acts like !!! (Chk Chk Chk) and brought their kinetic energy to festivals like Roskilde. With a knack for reinvention, their music feels equally at home in dimly lit clubs and open-air stages—always anchored by Grahn’s deadpan vocals and a rhythm section that refuses to sit still. Their recent work continues to balance precision and spontaneity, keeping fans guessing (and moving).
