GB pushes beyond the downtempo haze of earlier work on Herzsprung, opening things up into something fuller, louder and more direct. Written while living in London, the songs began with cut-up lyrics assembled from copies of the city's free Metro newspaper before taking shape in makeshift studios.
Pulling together influences from 1970s fusion, grunge, Japanese noise-rock and outsider pop, the album balances Copenhagen alt-pop roots with a restless urge to stretch rock traditions. After an unexpected turn in a viral Jaguar advert, GB headed to rural Sweden with a trusted group of collaborators, where the songs came alive through live performance and collective instinct. Tracked largely live to tape, Herzsprung captures a band working with energy, spontaneity and ideas to spare.
