Hidden Shoal Recordings has announced the release of ‘The First Cause’, the second freely downloadable single taken from Heresy and Rite, the debut album by Danish spectral noise-rock quartet Salli Lunn.
‘The First Cause’ is a true epic in scope and execution, and a superb demonstration of Salli Lunn’s mastery of light and shade. Across its eight-minute runtime, it packs a true sonic and emotional punch, layering guitars into surging waves, upon which Lasse Skjold Bertelsen’s vocals ride with aplomb. ‘The First Cause’ proves a devastating follow-up to acclaimed first single ‘Parachutes Forever’ – and a fittingly awesome finale to Heresy and Rite.
“… ‘The First Cause’ floats between a dream-pop musing and an indie ballad – and then turns into a frenetic juggernaut that completely defies contemporary taxonomy.” – No Ripcord
“a debut that is alive with creative individuality. Chiming guitars over the ever shifting, twisting, pulsing, and impressive drumming… help create a maze of possible directions which prove impossible to second guess.” – BlogCritics
‘The First Cause’ is available for free download from the Hidden Shoal Store. Album Heresy and Rite is available worldwide in CD and digital formats through Hidden Shoal Recordings. Check out the Hidden Shoal Store for all availability details.
