Efterklang are set to return with their new album Piramida on September 24 (worldwide) and on September 25th in the U.S. The album is available to pre-order on cd and vinyl here.
Last year, Efterklang began work on the new album during a short trip to the Arctic island of Spitsbergen. The band visited the Russian settlement Piramida, and while there collected a variety of recordings that they've utilized on the new album. Take a look at the official trailer for Piramida below to see footage from their trip, plus their new song "Dreams Today" is featured in the trailer:
Efterklang have posted dates for their 2012 world tour, which includes only one North American date. Efterklang, backed by a 16 member orchestra, play New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art on September 22nd. Information and tickets for the NYC show are available here. Efterklang are planning on playing some dates in the U.S. in early 2013, though nothing has been announced yet.
