Inspired by a trip to the artic ghost town of Piramida, just a 1000km from the North Pole, Efterklang have a produced this rather grand first cut from their forthcoming album going by the same name. The results from sounds created with impressive findings like this, plus contributions from a number of other artists including a 60-piece girls’ choir, are somewhat impressive. The accompanying video for “Hollow Mountain” is directed by Oodls and is equally so… enjoy.
Piramida will be out on 4AD & Rumraket on September 24th and can be pre-ordered here. By Nathan Hetherington
