New song from upcoming EFTERKLANG album! [NEWS]

Efterklang - "Hollow Mountain"

"Hollow Mountain" is an opening song of upcoming, fourth Efterklang album titled "Piramida". 

The album release is announced for 24.09.2012

Listen to the song below and read about an extraordinary Efterklang project that the recording of "Piramida" was!




As previously revealed (https://vimeo.com/44683198), last summer Mads Brauer, Casper Clausen and Rasmus Stolberg visited Piramida, an abandoned mining settlement located on Spitsbergen, just 1,000km from the North Pole. Nine days of exploring later, and the band had collected over 1,000 sound recordings and inspiration for the album they would subsequently write and record in Berlin.

Accompanying Hollow Mountain is a specially-commissioned visual piece created and directed by Oodls (Jakob Steen & Christoffer Frandsen). The clip features the band's own photos from their trip to Piramida as well as elements of Piramida album artwork (designed by Hvass&Hannibal).

The initial tones of Hollow Mountain are the sounds of one of Efterklang many discoveries in the ghost town of Piramida. For more info on this please see: http://efterklang.net/home/?p=1157

With contributions from Earl Harvin (drums, Tindersticks), Nils Frahm (wurlitzer), Peter Broderick (strings) and the 60-piece South Denmark's Girls Choir, Hollow Mountain is a grand opening statement to Efterklang's fourth studio album.
