Camera Obscura — My Maudlin Career (2009)
Indie pop | XLD log | FLAC (tracks + cue) | 46 min | 320 MB
My Maudlin Career is the fourth studio album by the British indie pop band Camera Obscura. The album was released in April 2009 via 4AD and, like its predecessor, was produced by Jari Haapalainen of the Bear Quartet. The string and horn arrangements are by Björn Yttling, of Peter Bjorn and John. (Wikipedia)


Camera Obscura: Stockholm Syndrome
by Scott Sinclair, Wears the Trousers magazine

While Camera Obscura are a wonderfully romantic band, they’re also incredibly hard workers. My Maudlin Career refers in part to just how tedious and fickle the music industry can be: “We were having a bit of a joke because maudlin sounds like modelling and modelling is obviously a job that some people think is glamorous, just like the music business,” says Tracyanne Campbell.

Indeed, it’s a little known fact about Camera Obscura, especially given their larger popularity Stateside, that My Maudlin Career marks the first album where the band can proudly say that they are full-time musicians. “The band has never been a profit making business. The money that we did make we put into recording and going on tour,” Tracyanne explains. So, a decade on from their debut EP, they have finally made the long-awaited transition to making a living from their music. Once they completed their contract with Elefant Records the band decided to self-finance My Maudlin Career in order to have their pick of the record labels: “We wanted to be in a position where we could choose.” This is how they ended up on 4AD, a label currently in possession of one of the most attractive rosters in the business.

It should be noted for newcomers that Tracyanne is a confessional lyricist. The press release for the album quotes her as saying: “I’ve never been so brutal when it’s come to writing lyrics. I wouldn’t even call them lyrics. Just documentation of what was going on with me for a while.”

That’s a misleading quote, insofar as it might lead you to think that Tracyanne is an open book. She is, in fact, the opposite. At some point, she’s worked out that you can be perfectly open about the nature and shape of your feelings but extremely private about their origins. Tracyanne is aware that no matter how ‘documentary’ the lyrics become, they can’t be too involved; the listener always needs to be able to put herself in the place of the “I” who sings, and too much detail can obstruct that. As she points out: “I’m not going to say for a moment that I’m laying my soul bare and that everybody knows everything about me – I think that would be absolutely ridiculous.”

On the subject of her being a ‘melancholy’ songwriter, she is especially amusing: “I do write songs that come from a sad time or a sad place, but at the same time,” she pauses for dramatic effect, “I must enjoy that! There must be something in me that panders to that, you know? I think I can accept that about myself.” She even goes so far as to cheerily say, “I seem to write better when I’m feeling a bit down.”

She adores the new record – “it should be our best. Just like the next one should be the best” – but she’s never precious about it. In fact, she’s almost the opposite of the romantic persona that you hear on the album, which just makes it a more enduring, complex, and enchanting listen.

There’s only one point at which she displays that same kind of restless yearning, so to speak, and that is on the topic of Sweden: “Stockholm is where we’ve been a lot over the last few years. It’s the one place in the world that I really feel very comfortable and very at home. And it’s the one place that I actually long for, which I think is kind of strange because usually people just long for their own city or town. Stockholm is a great place.”
