Efterklang - Raincoats

01. Raincoats (Single Edit)
02. Harmonics (Covered by Peter Broderick & Nils Frahm)

'Raincoats' really stood out from the tracklist of Efterklang's most recent album, Magic Chairs, chiefly because there's a vocal hook in it that sounds eerily similar to 'Hangin' Tough' by New Kids On The Block. It's a lovely production however, finding the Danish post-rockers making a harmonious marriage of elaborate electronic programming and organic - almost folky - live band performances. The B-side is likely to draw a crowd all by itself: Peter Broderick and piano maestro Nils Frahm take on an acoustic cover of 'Harmonics' (another track from Magic Chairs) which proves that even once all the electronics and extra personnel have departed, there's still a strong piece of songwriting at the heart of what this band do...www.boomkat.com
