Danish experimental rock supergroup Marching Church follows up last year's This World Is Not Enough with a collection of post-punky jams that seem to have a bit more thought put into them, and just as much passion.

Iceage - Plowing Into the Field of Love
ReviewsCommentDanish post-punkers Iceage plow into the field of love with full force, backing up their longest set of songs yet with pianos, strings, and horns.
Iceage - "The Lord's Favorite"
VideosCommentDenmark's Iceage have proven themselves to be savvy in numerous fringe genres across their two full-length records: post-punk, goth rock, noise rock. However, this new--and surprisingly melodic--track of their delves unexpectedly into alt-country, it seems. Everything from the guitar chords to the bassline feels distinctly Western, but Iceage performs it in their trademark sloppiness. Like usual, a good song shines through despite the slurring vocals and loosely played instrumentation. Enjoy!
Iceage - "Morals" from Copenhagen
VideosCommentDanish punk, post-punk, and noise rock act Iceage releases a session performance of one of my favorite tracks from their latest album, You're Nothing. Morals" is one of the most ballad-like tracks on the album, and it's the beautiful piano chords and steady march of the beat that help make it so.
This session performance of the track is both fierce and passionate, and brings a little more intensity than the album version, I think.

Lower- "Somone's Got It In For Me" / "But There Has To Be More"
New TracksCommentDenmark's Lower has a new single up on its Bandcamp, and both tracks take the post-punk outfit into some pretty heavy, dismal, and depressing territory. Both songs work at a slow pace, and feature some sincerely pained vocals as well. These guys have put out one of the better EPs of this year as well, so make sure to take a listen to that as well.
Efterklang- Piramida
Reviews5 CommentsOn Piramida, the Danish band Efterklang seems to tone things down even further from the more subtle move the band made with their previous LP.
