New single “Brutal Youth” out February 5th.

All Ages have a crime, as future will hit, I’ll slowly decline, wake brutal youth, before the world passes you by”

An ode to youth, the current one, the one you left and the one that carries a potential hope for a better world, but also the place in life where you are always under fire and fighting the impossible battle.

Everything fades, In blood that runs from your brow and that was you, and that was me,and that was us……….”

“Brutal Youth” is our second version, with english lyrics and new string arrangement. The track is from our recordings at Det Kongelige Danske Musikkonservatorie 2023-2024.

With us, we had the idea of making as simple a recording as possible, where all basic tracks were laid down exclusively with the help of vocals, drums and keys. An attempt to capture the intuitive in the interplay, and further develop the dynamics and drama of the composition.

“Brutal Youth”  is a new interpretation of “Brutal Ungdom(borderlinien)”, which was one of the more rocking tracks on our debut record “Tiden Lyver”(2022).

String arrangements by Ida Duelund and Nils Gröndahl

Produced by Kristian Alexander and Anders Rex, CPH, 2025

“Gospel of Querelle”

Our new single “Gospel of Querelle” will be released 3. Nov 2023 on all digital platforms.

We are so grateful that this little dark star, finally will see the day of light – believe us – there were some obstacles on the way.

The song is directly inspired by the novel “Querelle of Brest” by Jean Genet and the Fassbinder movie “Querelle” Its all about a young handsome sailor who is drawn into a vortex of sibling rivalry, crime, murder and explosive sexuality. Each man kills the thing he loves. Stay tuned

Visual concept: Tobias Elmsdal and Anders Rex
