Monkton: Slarafalafel. Or something.

Slaraffenland. My, it feels soooo good just to say the word. Sssla-raffff-enn-lannnd. Glorious. I might even go one further and form a Danish supergroup - Slaraffenklang - if it hadn’t happened already. Too good to be true for fans of phonetics and Scandi post-rock alike. But alas, that was 2008, and I have definitely missed the boat.

Cue We’re On Your Side, the latest installment from Slaraffenland for the boat-missing Slaraffenfans among us. It’s a swelling, chattering affair -  from the orchestra to the rockery - with bright, buzzing reams of distortion and intimately textural landscapes. Many many highlights, but for now this will do -

MP3: ‘Too Late to Think’ - Slaraffenland
MP3: ‘Falling Out’ - Slaraffenland

There is more loveliness in Denmark, Horatio, than is dreamt of in your philosophy. Word.

Buy it or Spotify it.
