Denmark group formed in 2000 with their 3rd album. A four piece with some occasional sit ins for live performances. The name is a Danish word for remembrance. Their last album received rave reviews, but this one doesn't, from me anyway. Couldn't find much I liked. First single is the lead off, Modern Drift, which is a very pretty mello cut, but not much after that. Actually, after putting this post together and viewing these live clips, this is probably one of those bands that for me would be a much better live act than sitting under the headphones. Sort of an Arcade Fire feel, which is a good thing. But then my ratings are about the music and not the performance.
