Kanaan & Ævestaden announce new collaborative album ‘Langt, Langt Vekk’

KANAAN and ÆVESTADEN have announced a new collaborative album!

Titled Langt, Langt Vekk, the upcoming album sees the Norwegian instrumental stoner psychedelic rock band collaborative with their fellow countrymen, neo-folk trio Ævestaden, and it is scheduled to be released in October this year, via Jansen Records.

Langt, Langt Vekk serves up reworked old traditionals and psalms along with grand new compositions. The album is impressively coherent, given the two band’s wildly different musical backgrounds. Fiddles, cow’s horn, kravik lyre, mouth harp, synths, harmonies, heavy guitars and a thundering rhythm section: Musically, it is impressively versatile, as well as consistently tasteful. It’s the first new material from KANAAN since their 2023 record Diversions Vol. 2: Enter the Astral Plane – their eighth studio album since forming in 2018.

Alongside the announcement of the new album, the bands have released a new single from the upcoming collaborative album; Fiskaren. The new song is the second single to be released from the upcoming album, following on from Habbor og Signe, which was released last month.
