Choir Of Young Believers detail curveball LP Grasque, share new cut "Jeg Ser Dig"
Denmark's Choir Of Young Believers have announced a new LP called Grasque, and shared its second single "Jeg Ser Dig".
The title of the new cut roughly translates to "I See You" in their native Danish. The band's mainman Jannis Noya Makrigiannis originally intended for these nostalgic pop songs to be released under the guise of a new band called Grasque (hence the record's title), but then changed his mind after working through some with COYB.
Speaking about the abrupt change in style, Makrigiannis says: “I must admit, one of the things I worried about was ‘What will people think?’. With almost all of these songs, I had been in doubt. Some, I felt, were too poppy, others too experimental - some didn’t even feel like songs, but more like trips, or feelings. Some even had Danish and Greek lyrics. But now, it’s all Choir of Young Believers to me, and it feels great to have pushed the walls around the band, giving it a bit more space. It’s weird for me to think about all that doubt - 'Could I do this? Could I do that?' I mean, it’s my fucking band. I can do what I want with it. Right?”
Grasque is out 19 February via Ghostly International. It'll be released on CD, digitally, and on vinyl. As well as standard black, the double LP will be released on limited edition colour vinyl.
