Under the name Det Stora Monstret, Jacob Johansson explores and questions the world we live in with a truly unique voice. Through sharp lyrics and bittersweet melodies, he weaves together intimate personal fractures with themes of global and existential relevance.

The new album is a raw and deeply personal story of scarred relationships, heavy sacrifices, and the struggle to find your way back to yourself. It is both poetic and political — an album whose songs cut straight to the heart, linger in the body, and take on a life of their own.

“A bastard child born from Nirvana’s unplugged album and Radiohead. It’s magnificent,” Göteborgs-Posten wrote and gave his latest concert a 4 out of 5. Det Stora Monstret's music has been celebrated by listeners and critics since the debut in 2014. The latest album received a perfect score of 6 out of 6 from GAFFA and 4 out of 5 from GP.
