The Shaking Sensations - How Are We to Fight the Blight? (2019) EN

Six long years after releasing a well-received album Start Stop Worrying, the Danish band The Shaking Sensations are back with a new one. And this come-back is so impressive! At the end of the year we got one of the best post-rock albums of the last 12 months.

The new album "displays a band that has lost this innocence, in favour of reflection, growth and maturity... and yet fresh, dedicated and honing their craft". Maybe it's just writing for the sake of writing by the label guys, but the truth is that the new material from the Danes is absolutely absorbing. Since the beginning they were famous for having two drummers and it's noticeable also here - for instance in the impressive drumrolls in Tremendous Efforts. 

But it doesn't mean that the musicians neglected other aspects of their music. Every instrument has its special moment on the album, like for example the bass in Manual Trauma, but what's perhaps even more important, the band knows the ways of the true clue of the post-rock craft - creating interesting and non-obvious compositions. It's worth to mention that this spring the band will be touring across Europe, be sure to see them somewhere on the way.

How Are We to Fight the Blight? costs 7.99 EUR.
