There I was dissing (sorta) jangling chords in the last post and then Windermere go and break my heart all over again with this epic. This has many of essential aspects of the Slowdive sound, that hazy pulsing funnel of noise that levitates everything around it beyond the ordinary. In that regard Jakob Skjoldborg’s voice seems out of place but I guess to move forward you can’t be totally fixated with the past. Either way it is near impossible to ignore the overwhelming power of those guitar lines set to maximum reverb. When they hit their stride at 3 minutes in I feel myself getting dizzy at the beauty of it all. KD

Guess i should have mentioned them when you asked me for interesting danish Bands.. I own their latest Record.. Indeed nice, even though I didnt realize they had international potential.
Jakob, I actually checked them out following your recommendation! Thanks, I really like their shoegaze sound.
