Les Dunes is a new Instrumental Alternative band from Haugesund, Norway, which will release their self-titled debut album on March 24 through Kapitän Platte/ Apollon Records.
Consisting of members from bands like The Low Frequency in Stereo, Undergrunnen, Lumen Drones, Helldorado and Action & Tension & Space. The band consists of Per Andreas Haftorsen on guitar, Morten Jackman on drums and Per Steinar Lie on bass.
The result reminds of the fantastic slow-core era bands of the 90ies, like Codeine who create their own version of Explosions In The Sky songs or like Per Steinar Lie claims “it feels like the vibe of the early days of The Low Frequency In Stereo.” The music is rooted in a thought of a long freeway drive at night where time stops and the mind flows.
