niklas steffensen h. has been lo-fi rockin' since the turn of the century. "the second shortcoming" is all about emotive acoustic songs, abrasive guitar pop, drum machine-led indie rock love anthems, and so much more! the 25 "new" songs (dated 2004 to 2006) are each of an impressively high standard, both melodically and lyrically.

songs: 1. die alone / 2. the bible & das kapital / 3. friday / 4. leaves / 5. gail was drunk / 6. finland / 7. ringing in yr ears / 8. crystal ball / 9. i can't complain / 10. faucet / 11. it always sounds false / 12. mercy killing / 13. meat / 14. clues / 15. the lock that is yr days / 16. empteen #2 / 17. paris, berlin, etc. / 18. my latest obsession / 19. alive after 10 / 20. dad / 21. this hard / 22. all there is / 23. like that / 24. prospect / 25. in time

sample mp3s: "crystal ball", "my latest obsession"
