DOWNLOAD THE FREE EP NOW - 30mb
There are 4 songs on the EP and a front cover is included in the zip archive as well.
Here is the story:
In May 2008 Slaraffenland & Efterklang were on a joint US tour under the name The Danish Dynamite Tour.
Halfway through the tour the bands got a call from back home. The newly established Sono Festival wanted
to hear if Slaraffenland and Efterklang could be interested in performing a special concert at their
festival. After a very quick talk on the topic it was decided that everyone would love to play in a band
with two drummers and a lot of distorted guitars and therefore the offer was accepted.
The 4 songs on this free live EP are all recorded at Sono Festival in R¯dovre (a suburb to Copenhagen)
November 8th 2008. This was the first and maybe also the last concert with Slaraffenklang. The idea is
simple and fun. Slaraffenklang is the mutant band of Efterklang and Slaraffenland. There are 12 musicians
on stage, all men, and the songs performed are covers of Efterklang and Slaraffenland. Sometimes just louder
and more rumbling versions and sometimes in new slightly new arrangements.
tracklist:
Cutting Ice To Snow
Polaroids
Echo Wave
You Win
recorded, mixed and mastered by Petter Samuelsson.
Please Enjoy!
