Neither a sequel nor a satellite to The Wild Hunt, the Tallest Man on Earth's EP, Sometimes the Blues Is Just a Passing Bird is a statement in its own right. While many post-LP EPs round up same-session tracks or studio experiments for diehard fans, these five austere folk songs were written on the road and recorded during a recent break from touring. They're unmistakably Tallest, marked by the vulnerability in Kristian Matsson's croak of a voice, the strident complexity of his guitarwork, and his thoughtful, often fractured lyrics inspired, ostensibly, by his native Sweden - specifically the mountainous region of Dalarna, northwest of Stockholm. and yet, despite the same elements, Sometimes the Blues Is Just a Passing Bird has a very different character from The Wild Hunt.
