[edit] Background
In 2007 Kristian Matsson released a self-titled five-song EP. On March 5th 2008 he released his full-length debut in Sweden titled Shallow Grave. So far the critical reception seems to be positive, with Pitchfork Media rating the album 8.3 out of 10.[1]
With the help of David Macias (Thirty Tigers, Nashville TN) and Robert Millis (TechValleyTimes, Albany NY), a short US tour has been arranged, which will bring The Tallest Man On Earth to a half-dozen cities in June 2008. Management, label and distribution deals are also due to be negotiated during that trip.
