Dūnē om "Echoes Of December"

"Vi havde en hel del rigtig gode sange, der var af en mere stille karakter, som vi rigtig gerne ville udgive. Siden vi har skrevet så mange sange til vores næste album, valgte vi at bruge et par uger på at indspille og udgive disse sange og udgive dem i december. Det er faktisk en smule intimiderende, da det er det første originale materiale, vi udgiver siden maj 2010".

- Piotrek

"Jeg er meget stolt af denne ep. For mig har det været en fed udfordring at lege med nogle andre aspekter af guitaren end det jeg plejer. Men bare lige for at understrege det: Vores næste album bliver ikke kun stille sange med trommemaskine."

- Danny

"Det har været en fantastisk læringsproces for os at producere, indspille og udgive ep helt selv. Ole Bjórn har gjort et fantastisk stykke teknisk arbejde, der har givet et resultat vi er meget stolte af. Det meste er indspillet i hans stue, hvilket også har givet en del problemer. Bl.a. da vi valgte at indspille vokaler den samme dag som hans forhave blev renoveret med tre meget larmende maskiner. På denne ep har Ole Bjórn også sin første tjans som frontvokalist på sangen "It Shouldnʼt Be All." Det tog noget tid at få ham overbevist, men efter en omgang seriøs opfordring gik han med til at gøre det, og hvilket resultat! Vi elsker hans stemme, og vi håber I gør det samme."

- Mattias

"Den oprindelige idé var at udgive én sang, hver advent, men da epʼen var færdig syntes vi det hele passede sammen så perfekt at de ville være ærgerligt at splitte sangene ad på den måde. Vi ser mere eller mindre hele epʼen som én lang sang mere end fire forskellige tracks med en intro og en outro."

- Ole Bjórn


Dūnē about “ECHOES OF DECEMBER”:


“We had a lot of great more quiet songs that we wanted out there and since we have written so many songs for our next album we chose to take out a couple of weeks to finish these songs and release them in December. It is also a little intimidating since this is the first original material we have released since May 2010.” - Piotrek

“I’m very proud of this EP. For me it was a thrill to work with some different aspects of my guitar playing, but just to make it clear: our future album will not only feature mellow songs with drum machine.” - Danny

“It was a great learning experience to produce, record and release it all by ourselves. Ole Bjórn did a great job engineering everything. Most of it was made in his living room, which also caused us some trouble since we chose to do vocals on the same day as his lawn was mowed. On this EP Ole Bjórn got his first lead vocal performance ever on the song “It Shouldn’t Be All.” It took some time to convince him to do it, but after some serious encouragement he agreed on doing it and what a result! We love his voice and we hope you do, too!” - Matt

“The original idea was to release a new song on every advent, but when the EP was done the whole thing just fit together so greatly that it would be a shame to divide them like that. We more or less see the EP as one long song rather than four separate songs and an intro and outro.” - Ole Bjórn
