CMU Approved
Approved: New Efterklang
By Andy Malt | Published on Monday 23 November 2009
CMU favourites Efterklang performed their 2007 album, ‘Parades’, in full with the Britten Sinfonia at the Barbican in London last month. It was by far my favourite gig of the year. But now it’s time to look to the future, because the band have just completed work on their third album, ‘Magic Chair’. It’s not due to be released until February next year, courtesy of 4AD, but the band have already made a track from it available to download for free. A sonic shift from the material that appeared on ‘Parades’, particularly in the vocals, ‘Modern Drift’ hints at a more intimate, less grand direction for the new album.
