His first major release came in February, 2007 in the . when Sub Pop re-issued his album Loney, Noir. Emil Svanängen self-released his first album, The Year of River Fontana, in 2003.
Loney, dear used to be the moniker of t and home-recording phenomenon, Emil Svanängen from Jönköping, Sweden. Svanängen slightly changed his artist's name in 2009, skipping the comma in Loney, dear. He is now recording and releasing music as Loney Dear. Both names exist on Last.
Album · 2017 · 10 Songs. Pulling back from the symphonic openness of 2011’s Hall Music, Loney Dear finds Emil Svanängen in a quieter, more elusive mood. The music here is-as always-intricately and imaginatively arranged, juxtaposing hushed folk and blippy R&B ( Humbug ), intimacy and abstraction (the Bon Iver-ish There Are Several Alberts Here ), intensity and restraint ( Dark Light )-an eclectic sound that makes an intuitive kind of sense.

Loney Dear, Loney Dear. Download: Pun; Humbug; Isn’t It You?; Sum. Listening to Loney Dear’s eponymous album, I had to check that it wasn’t the pseudonymous work of John Grant, so alike, both in looks and musical sensibility, is Loney’s alter ego, Scandi-popster Emil Svanangen. His clear, soaring falsetto is best heard over the chattering synth-pop of Humbug, a typically Grant-like reflection on how we erroneously associate beauty with kindness, and in Sum, its triumphal tone expressing victory over setbacks. Roll With The Punches is a fairly generic Van Morrison album – which is to say, although unimpeachable in terms of feel and artistry, it doesn’t pack the life-changing punch wielded by his earliest work. Back then, a song title like Benediction would herald some deep, pantheist rumination; here, the Mose Allison number simply thanks God for, ahem, self-love.
