Nightshift [ep]

After their monumentual debut - the praised double album 'God Is In The Details / Music For Ghosts' [phisteria 2005] - and hot on the heels of two limited album releases in Germany [Shapeshifter Blues on Verato Project] and US [Bleach Dye Yr Heart on Gears of Sand] our very own animal rights avantgarde-drone-poltergeist rockers return to phisteria, with this diverse 4-tracker that really pays hommage to the band's heritage.

A1: The First Time We Met The Blues This vibrant and epic, slow building, thematic, seven and a half minute piece is Hinsidan's very own space-age drone blues. It comes with cathedral guitars and grandiose soundscapes. Imagine the instrumental Bowie/Eno's Low/Heroes era meeting Zoviet/France in a 2008 setting and you are halfway there....

A2: Labyrinths Of Obsession Side A sure ends with a taste of metal in your mouth. It combines Superjus' epileptic beat trickery with Atish's most desperate vocals to date. His preformance brings memories of an angry Mark Stewart anno The Pop Group days. The music lingers...again..at the edge of this world.

B1: The First Time We Met The Blues [L'ombre Rmx] A fantastic to-the-floor interpretation of the Hinsidan blues comes from renowned Ant-Zen artist L'ombre [Stephen Sawyer].

B2: Nightshift A stunning live recording from Hinsidan's last live concert in Ungdomshuset -RIP! We like you to know the kids fought to the last... This track has been described as a psyched out version of Joy Divison with New Order keyboard themes. Features Casper Holm of the legendary post-punk band Before.

This limited 10'' EP of 250 copies is most likely to be a hot collectible for all eternity, we dare you to miss it!!
