Lawhii - Lawhii EP (2010)

What a weird little trip, a short one too. This "duo of whales" debut release is only 9 minutes spread over 6 tracks. But damn !!! It's unforgettable, In the weirdest way. All the track titles are in Norwegin, but with the wonders of Google Translate it is easy to find out what they mean, the lyrics ??? Not so much. "Hellige Vakennat" & "Mine Atten Fedre" are spoken word tracks presumably in Norwegian with what appears to be whales (or something) chanting in the background. While "Devourer av vantro Plankton venner" is some strange form of guitar instrumental, possibly "played with whale flippers". Overall really weird. Check them out on Facebook & Last.fm, the latter of which is seemingly the only place to get their music.

Best Tracks: Hellige Vakennat & Mine Atten Fedre
