Ooh Sagi, this is just SPECTACULAR. I have had the debut for a long time, then I got this one a little while back - I couldn't believe my ears - the years did not change them one bit. It may as well be the 2nd album. I urge you to take the plunge and purchase it. And you will probably notice that I do tend to emphasise how good an album is, I can't help but get excited when I hear something that blows me away. There is some yootoob footage of recent TK - see if you can track down them playing a track called 'Barnet'. Maybe a bit slower than usual, but awesome nevertheless.

Thanks ma man! Your recommendation is enough for me to go and buy it, I'll look for it today and see if it's available.
I must say if you know only those two albums than now it's my turn to urge you to check out their second album Krigssang. It's less heavier than the first but equally awesome. Please check out this excellent track...
(It's three songs together, the one I mean starts at 5:22)

Thank-you Sir !! That track sounds awesome - they have this style of their own, a very distinctive sound that I adore. It's hard-rock, Swedish style, but very much Prog. Man, that Fredin, what a wicked bassist !! They are all great musos, I always look and ask about TK at fairs and such but I get blank looks. Their vinyls are rare as far as I know. I scored the Pic-Disc of the debut some years back, and Efter Efter about 2 years ago - both from Greg Walker. Efter Efter is a luscious blue with black spatter vinyl. And I must get Leprous' Coal LP in my next lot. I'm sure you raved about that release.

Saw them in early 1997; they opened with "Iron Man"
The singer (can't remember her name offhand) was in black leather...man was she purty.
That album Life is really cool...definitely captures that lounge meets twee thing, in a good way.
Their `Iron Man' cover is terrific! Everything a proper cover should be - a complete reinterpretation that perfectly fits their own music as if the song was their own!
Nina Persson! Yes, just lovely! Ohh, those sultry purrs of `Ohhhhhh, Iron Man.....' - that sh*t is vocal aphrodisiac right there!
Actually they were a fine little group, the musicians themselves had a pretty tight sound. They moved through the lounge-lightly jazzy pop sound to electro pop and into a rather glum dramatic pop/rock band by the end. They were playing live as recently as 2013, but I don't know if we'll ever get any more albums from them.
