12" Verdande #146243
Description
Release Date: May 10, 2024
Bergen-based Hard Rock-outfit Vestindien is ready to reveal their sophomore LP “Verdande”.
The album was written in a basement in Bergen and on a secluded island in the Barents Sea. Out in the open sea, the music gained more air and space, without losing its claustrophobic and chaotic roots from underground.
Three years after the release of the critically acclaimed debut album “NULL”, the band still only answers to their own standards and expectations, delivering eight tracks of psychedelic proto-metal with a gloomy twist.
Frontman Slettsnok has this to say about the album:
“Vestindien has always been a tool for processing impressions from the world around us, and as this world is becoming more and more infested by fascism and the endless greed of mankind, it has become necessary to build a non-violent alternative to my violent fantasies. “Verdande” is this alternative.”
