Frontside Bus going Down
Frontside Bus (from Fowler, US) has remixed ‘Down’ from the ‘This Is What You Get’ album. It should go well on your ‘beach playlist’.
Check out the Frontside Bus’ MySpace page or listen/download below.

Under the radar
We are working on a video for ‘Cigarette Burns’ – shot by Erik Hannemann (he is the one behind the ‘Blue Monday’, ‘Six Seven Times’ and ‘Kebab Shop’ videos as well).
Pictures from the soon to be finished video above – shot in black and white in our rehearsal studio.
It will be nice.
And you can now find us on Twitter – user name Flunk. Click here.
Found this on the web – a sweet piece from a blog called Hecklerspray. Read it here.
Album out today
Some more pics from our practice sessions. The new album is out today, and we’re looking forward to the show tonight (more pics here)
New album, new live set
Finally, on Monday our new album is out. We really hope you will like it.
More on ‘This Is What You Get’ here.
Meanwhile, we are practising. And practising.
Erik, the drummer, is going to be a father any day now, so we will have to do without him on the shows next week (Parkteatret, Oslo Monday and Tromsø on Friday).
The photos are from Jo’s, where we have been doing the pre-production. We will do a much more basic sound, more stripped, Anja joins in on guitar, Ulf has a new sampler etc. Should be a nice treat – if we can deliver the goods!
WTC
Went for a vacation in NY last week, and caught this.
And oh, here’s the new single
The album is still not completely finished, but the first single is.
It’s called ‘Common Sense’ and you get it below. There are also some tracks off the album sessions up on our MySpace site.
The album, called ‘This Is What You Get’, is due on May 11.
The tracklist is not yet decided upon, but the title do imply that our cover of Radiohead’s ‘Karma Police’ will be on the album.
Listen to Common Sense (Album Version):
MP3: Common Sense
Blind My Mind video
Andrea from Madrid, Spain made this a few months a go – a home made video for Blind My Mind from the Morning Star album.
It’s nice and lo-fi – and with a lot of nice shots in there!
Xmas treat
The new album is well under way, it will be called This Is What You Get and release date is May 25. Anja is doing the final vocals this month
Meanwhile, Jo and Anja recorded our take on Silent Night (performed once live, last December) in Jo’s studio this week. You can download it for free below. Merry Christmas! :-)
Listen to Silent Night:

Jo and Anja played at the LowFi Festival in Bydgoszcz, Poland this year as well – check out the video below – Six Seven Times.

Christmas wrapping
We play Pavilion in Oslo tonight, our only full gig in our home town this year.
If all goes well, we’ll post a vid of Anja singing ‘Silent Night’. Honestly.
December will be magic again
The above is a picture from Marrakech, Marocco on Sunday night. Just back from holiday there. Reminds me slightly about the ‘For Sleepyheads Only’ album sleeve photo…
Below, the new flyer for the Flunkschool club night. The November edition was cancelled due to common cold, I’ll try again on December 6 at the Pavilion café in Oslo.
And remember we do a full Flunk gig at the same venue on Friday December 14.
Also, the remix album ‘Democracy’ is out now on iTunes and other digital services. It will also be out on old fashioned compact disc, if you prefer the material world! It’s good value in any case, 16 tracks, 16 different mixes.
And – oh – do remember to buy the new Burial album. Probably the best album this decade – still!
