Edena Gardens – Dens LP

‘Dens’ concludes a trilogy of albums, aptly spelling out the last third of the group’s name. And true to form, the band turns inwards rather than outwards, drawing on deep shades of ambient, slowcore and the ghost of Mark Hollis. While maintaining its psychedelic edge, the trio weaves the lines between genres in a way that’s becoming a signature of its own. Engineered by Jonas Munk & produced by Jakob Skott, the album culls hours of free improvisation into a coherent size. Seamless edits and studio wizardry enhance the feeling of an almost narrative nature as the album progresses.
