WORSHIPPING ALERT!!

Lately, I have been listening a lot to the band Kråkesølv. I think the most beautiful thing the year 2009 brought us was their debut album Trådnøsting. IT IS SO AMAZING. I don't know where to start. Really.
First, they sing in Norwegian. If you're not from Norway, you might not know this, but Norwegian-singing bands are really rare. Norwegians have a tendency to be sceptical to bands who sing in our mother tongue, because it is really hard to get the lyrics sounding cool. BUT THESE GUYS DO. The lyrics are so amazing you just want to melt into them. And even better: they sing in the Northern dialect.
Second: THE MUSIC. After I had bought the album on impulse without having heard any of the songs (I'll tell you why soon), I put on the first song, Skredder. After the first ten seconds, I knew I would love the whole album. Skredder is still my favorite, but every time I listen to the album, I realize how beautiful all the other songs are, one by one.
Third: the reason why I bought the album. THE COVER ART. This album must have the best cover art ever made. I mean, just look: [link]
So really. Go listen to the music. Buy the album. Send them loads of fanmail. Because Kråkesølv is PURE ART.

WORSHIPPING DONE


I actually did this picture today - can you believe it!? I'm not uploading something from half a year ago! :D It's done with a 3h and a 2b pencil, and it is basically inspired by the Kråkesølv song Vågøyvannet Rundt (see the worshipping), but really the whole album. I find Vågøyvannet Rundt the best reference song to this picture though.
You can listen to the song here: [link]
For you lucky people who know Norwegian, here's the lyrics:

lyset blinka mellom greinan
føttern går som virvelslag
æ burde tatt litt lengre steg
men kroppen har en dårlig dag

blodsmak modnes fint med åran
akkurat som æ og du
det e i hvert fall det æ håpa
ska du fortsett eller snu

æ spring vågøyvannet rundt
men æ våga mæ ikke ut
på djupt vann

høsten si velkommen etter
våte sko og visne bla
et mørke som gir rom førr tvil
og retningsløse samtala

æ spring vågøyvannet rundt
men æ våga mæ ikke ut
på djupt vann

blodsmak modnes fint med åran
akkurat som æ og du
det va i hvert fall det æ håpa
ska æ fortsett eller snu
