EFTERKLANG & COPENHAGEN PHIL ~ THE PIRAMIDA CONCERT

The Piramida Concert by Efterklang + Copenhagen Phil was recorded live at Copenhagen's Royal Academy of Music Concert Hall in October 2012. Over the course of two sold-out nights Efterklang - plus Peter Broderick, Katinka Fogh Vindelev and Budgie (Siouxsie and The Banshees) - teamed up with classical orchestra Copenhagen Phil and German conductor Andre de Ridder to perform the Danish act's fourth album Piramida in its entirety.
Staged for the first time at the Sydney Opera House in May 2012, the orchestral arrangements were written by fellow Dane Karsten Fundal and New York composer Missy Mazzoli. The Piramida Concert also features 'So', a song written during recording sessions for Piramida, and 'Vælv', a classical piece commissioned by Efterklang and composed by Karsten Fundal. The live performance was mixed to tape by Francesco Donadello in the Vox-Ton studio in Berlin.
The Piramida Concert will only be available digitally or as a limited edition deluxe double gatefold vinyl (one black, one white vinyl + CD inside), which was designed by Danish artists Hvass&Hannibal.

Efterklang (Danish pronunciation: [ˈeftɐˌkʰlɑŋˀ]) is a Danishindie rock group from Copenhagen, formed in December 2000. The band has recorded five studio albums and are currently signed to the 4AD label, as well as their own record label Rumraket.

In 2012, they released their fourth album Piramida to good reviews.^[1][2][3]

History[edit]

2001–2011[edit]

The name Efterklang comes from the Danish word for 'remembrance' or 'reverberation.' Formed in Copenhagen, its three core members are Casper Clausen, Mads Brauer and Rasmus Stolberg.^[4] The original lineup also included Rune Mølgaard, but he has taken a more secluded role since 2007.^[4] Drummer Thomas Husmer left the band 2011.^[4] When performing live, the core three-piece band is complemented with the addition of live band members.

Efterklang released their first album Tripper to warm critical acclaim in autumn 2004.^[5][6] Their second album Parades saw the band working with British producer Darren Allison (Spiritualized),^[7] and was released in October 2007, receiving widespread critical acclaim by the likes of Mojo,^[8]Uncut,^[9]Drowned in Sound^[10] and Stylus magazine.^[11]Parades was named the 38th best album released between April 2005 to April 2009 by Clash in April 2009.^[12] In September 2008, Efterklang and The Danish National Chamber Orchestra performed Parades in its entirety at the Copenhagen Concert Hall; the performance was documented on a limited edition LP/DVD set entitled Performing Parades, which was released in October 2009.

In September 2009, Efterklang signed a new record deal with the British independent label 4AD. Their third full-length album Magic Chairs was Efterklang's first on their new label, released in February 2010.^[13]Magic Chairs won IMPALA's European Independent Album of the Year on 28 February.^[14] The record was well received by Pitchforkmedia.

In August 2010, French filmmaker Vincent Moon and Efterklang's 8-piece live band met up on an island off the Danish coast. The objective was to shoot a film with the same length as an album, and a film full of performances, experiments and collaborations. The result was called An Island.

In 2011, drummer and trumpet player Thomas Husmer left the band and the other members announced that they would carry on as a trio.^[15]

Piramida (2012)[edit]

In 2012, the band went on tour to present their fourth album Piramida with an orchestra and drummer Budgie of Siouxsie and the Banshees as special guest for the live shows. The premiere at the Sydney's 'Opera House' in June was praised by Time Out^[16] and Mojo.^[17] The latter wrote : 'Piramida is the sound of Efterklang’s grasp meeting their reach, of their ambition evading the pretentious, the blankly grandiose, and rewarding them with a masterpiece.'.^[17] A European leg coincided with the release of Piramida.^[18] The band performed with an orchestra and Budgie in Ireland, Scandinavia, UK, the Netherlands and Belgium.^[18]

At its release in September, their fourth album Piramida received good reviews. Mojo rated it four stars and said: 'Despite the elegant grey-sky thinking, deep beneath the emotional permafrost, Piramida isn't as cold as it seems'.^[2]BBC Music said : 'This see-saw, between exquisite gloom and bruised hope, is part of what makes Piramida so powerful' before concluding by these words, 'rarely have the Serious Young Man Blues been articulated with such grace, so affectingly'.^[1] British Fact magazine wrote: 'Piramida is an abandoned mining town located deep within the Arctic Circle. It’s the setting for Efterklang’s fourth and finest album, an acutely musicianly affair employing lorry loads of classical instruments, brass, synths and what appears to be a choir of thousands broadcasting from the deep end of a fjord'.^[3]Q magazine commented: 'here’s a band on top of the world, and on top of their game… Piramida is a revelation.'^[19]

From December Efterklang went on tour with their new 6-piece band. In 2013, the Piramida tour took the band around North America and Europe.^[20]

Leaf Label Re-issues (2015)[edit]

In 2015, The Leaf Label released a number of re-issues as part of its 20th anniversary celebrations. A poll enabled fans to vote for which albums from the label's back catalogue they wished to see re-issued,^[21] and Efterklang's Parades was selected. The album, released on double vinyl LP, was initially available to fans through the PledgeMusic service and was introduced to shops in early 2016.^[22]A double vinyl re-issue of Tripper is also available from The Leaf Label after a successful BeatDelete campaign.^[23]

Liima[edit]

In 2016, the members of Efterklang, along with drummer Tatu Rönkkö, formed the band Liima. They released their debut album, ii, on 18 March 2016.^[24] The album received positive reviews, earning a score of 70 on Metacritic, based on 8 reviews.^[25]

Liima's second album, 1982, was released on 3 November 2017.^[26]

Rumraket[edit]

Efterklang has released albums on the British/American record label The Leaf Label, but have also released material on their own record label Rumraket (the Danish word for 'space rocket'). So far, the Rumraket roster includes releases from Grizzly Bear, Amiina, Cacoy, Erik Levander, Kama Aina, Slaraffenland, Taxi Taxi!, and Canon Blue.^[27]

Efterklang has a history of working with many guest musicians on their recordings. They have also produced a vast number of artistic music videos by filmmakers such as Karim Ghahwagi, Tobias Stretch, Anders Morgenthaler, Carolina Melis, and Jeremiah Zagar. Nan Na Hvass from Hvass&Hannibal is the creator of the critically acclaimed artwork for Efterklang's One-Sided LP, Under Giant Trees, Parades, and the 'Mirador' music video.
