  • Description

    New Kscope signings Nordic Giants release their debut album A Séance Of Dark Delusions . The elusive duo bring their beautifully apocalyptic soundscapes alive in a rich project exploring the deep breadths of sonic and visual art.

    Largely instrumental, A Séance Of Dark Delusions reflects the inspired musical experimentation and atmosphere of Sigur Rós, 65daysofstatic, Bjork and Pink Floyd. Nordic Giants bring a heavy orchestral brutality through progressive guitar, drum and brass, which are paired with beautiful and haunting electronics as they warp loops and samples through pattered keys, the Nordic Giants enlist the vocal features of artists, Saturday Sun ('Dissolve'), Nadine Wild Palmer ('Futures Dark'), Freyja ('Give Flight To The Imagination'), and Beth Cannon ('Rapture').

    As the lead & first video track from A Séance Of Dark Delusions, is 'Rapture' is an enigmatically provoking wonderment featuring vocals from Beth Cannon, the song's cavernous holy sentiments crawl beneath the skin with their poignant key chimes, creeping synths and chorus choir.

    Live Nordic Giants are an even more imposing beast. Experimenting with different live performance spaces, from Victorian halls to 360-degree visual domes to digital mapping shows. Using short films from acclaimed award winning directors, incorporating delicate animation as well as immersive actor led stories.

    Nordic Giants have just finished up a European support slot with Sólstafir and have been confirmed for festivals, including La Ferme Festival, Out Of The Crowd Festival and Aloud Music Festival with headline dates for the UK being booked.

    A Séance Of Dark Delusions is the first full length release from one of the most intriguing and original bands of 2015, a duo that offer an intense aural and visual experience. The album will released as a sleevepac CD/DVD package with the bonus DVD featuring a 15 minute documentary including behind the scenes footage from the recording , interviews with the producer and artwork designer. Plus live footage taken from their recent 'Spirit' digital mapping show in Brighton, UK and three stunning videos.

    NORDIC GIANTS' DEBUT ALBUM 'A SEANCE OF DARK DELUSIONS' CELEBRATES 10TH ANNIVERSARY WITH VINYL REISSUE ON KSCOPE.

    Originally released in 2015, Nordic Giants' beautifully apocalyptic debut album 'A Seance Of Dark Delusions' draws inspiration from the likes of Sigur Ros, Bjork & Pink Floyd, blending orchestral brutality, progressive guitar, cinematic textures & ethereal electronics into a uniquely fascinating experience.

    The album features stunning vocal contributions from Saturday Sun ('Dissolve'), Nadine Wild Palmer ('Futures Dark'), Freyja ('Give Flight to the Imagination') & Beth Cannon ('Rapture'), each adding to its otherworldly atmosphere.

    "It's hard not to be seduced within the sphere of aural grandness, this is very good stuff indeed" - CLASSIC ROCK

    From the creeping synths & holy resonance of 'Rapture' to the thunderous crescendos of 'Give Flight To The Imagination', 'A Seance Of Dark Delusions' remains a mesmerising & transportive journey--one that now, a decade later, is as vital as ever.

    "Long live the experimental, where real artistry really lives & what Nordic Giants are able to capture so easily" - THE LINE OF BEST FIT

    Known for their cinematic & atmospheric sound, British post-rock duo Nordic Giants bring the same spirit of experimentation to their live performances. Performing under the enigmatic pseudonyms Loki (drums, brass, electronics) & Roka (guitar, piano, electronics), they transform each show into a one-of-a-kind audiovisual experience. Their performances take place in a variety of unconventional settings, from Victorian halls to 360-degree visual domes & digital mapping shows, enhanced by short films from award-winning directors, delicate animations & immersive actor led narratives.

    This 10-year anniversary edition LP of 'A Seance Of Dark Delusions' is presented on classic black vinyl.
