The image capture above is taken from a video promo currently streaming over at Swedish pop crooner Jens Lekman's website. The video promo is for Jens' new album "Night Falls Over Kortedala" out September 5 in Scandinavia(through Service), and October 9 in the US(through Secretly Canadian). With a US tour starting October 23, I'm hoping a Toronto date'll will be squeezed in some time[he hasn't been here since his fantastic show in November 2005]. If you can't wait till October, sample some of the new songs over at YouTube:

My primary motivation for even writing this post up was that the imagery above was only a sad reminder that summer is over. Happy Labour Day everyone! We have Jens' album to look forward to in the Fall.
