    Is it just me, or is the band name 'Efterklang' somewhat similar to 'Ester Drang'?

  1. Like the title suggests, this album is grand in many ways, but the sheen also wears off somewhat quickly at the same time.
  2. The first few tracks work a treat, melding glitchy beats and stomping brass bands in the best tradition of Björk or Sigur Rós. After that, however, things start to feel a bit overwrought.
  3. Seriously: this is one of 2007’s finest LPs, no question.
