Amazing Danish folk punk / singer-songwriter music (or "screamer-songwriter") released last month on a ton of labels. Emotive, beautiful, and wonderfully catchy, not to mention friggin' epic at times (the title track is over 10 mins long), this is... well, frankly it's bloody brilliant.
The vocals deserve special mention; they are gruff, melodic, affecting, and strained, but never overly so; it's a fine line, and Niels Højgaard Sørensen gets it spot on, kinda like a folk/punk James Hetfield. There's also some charming harmonies. Accompaniment is acoustic, frantic at times, but mostly provides the rhythm to keep things ticking over nicely, plus there are some happy-go-lucky harmonica moments and even a little ska.
Yup, this is one mightily impressive record.
