Style and Use in Other Media
The band's unique sound reconstitutes influences of alternative country, depressive disco, and pop into distinctive, cinematic soundscapes. From the beginning, digital illustrator Kustaa Saksi has crafted the visual side of the project, capturing the mood with his detailed yet minimalist style, reminiscent of the ukiyo-e paintings and masking-based comic style of Japan.
Due to the visual character and ability to convey emotion and mood, Husky Rescue's music has been placed in several advertisements and TV shows. "My World" was used in Hyundai's Think About It advertisements. "New Light of Tomorrow" was used in a P&O TV commercial and on the HBO TV series The Sopranos. "New Light of Tomorrow" and "The Good Man" were both used on the second season of One Tree Hill, while "Rainbow Flows" was featured in Beck's Italian beer commercial.
Nyberg scored two Finnish motion pictures; Sixpack (Pussikaljaelokuva) in 2011 and Twisted Roots (Väärät Juuret) in 2009, of which a soundtrack album was also released.
