For flowers, cars and merry wars

Huntsville on vinyl

On Huntsville’s very first release on vinyl, “For Flowers, Cars and Merry Wars”, the group is heading in a heavier, darker, more rock-flavoured and electric direction.

Huntsville, an improvisational trio with a distinctive sound, has already released two unique, critically acclaimed albums on the Norwegian label Rune Grammofon. The group has toured in Europe and the USA several times, has collaborated with Sidsel Endresen, Wilco’s Nels Cline and Glenn Kotche, and recently held a concert in Spain with Thurston Moore of Sonic Youth.

On the monumental track that fills the entire A side they are joined by the superb alternative pop vocalist Hanne Hukkelberg. The album was mixed at Propeller Studios with Kåre Chr. Vestrheim (Motorpsycho, Jaga Jazzist) at the board. This is clearly the most cohesive album the trio has made so far. Hypnotic and energetic music that deserves to be played at a high volume.
