Dance to the sounds of The Sonic Dawn’s new video As Of Lately

« Into the Long Night » is the second album by THE SONIC DAWN, one of the most remarkable bands to come out of the new psychedelic wave in Denmark. Just a few seconds into this album, and you will realize that you are in for a mind-altering experience. “It’s a trip! By taking the listeners to places they didn’t expect to go, we hope to make them aware – that they’ll stop up and think about life for a minute. Awareness is the first step to change in the world” says Emil Bureau (guitar/vocals).

It was made in collaboration with some of Scandinavia’s most regarded personnel: it features Swedish Hammond legend Erik ‘Errka’ Petersson on keys and Morten Grønvad on vibraphone/percussions, which adds to its soundtrack-like qualities. Mixed in The Village Recording with jazz producer Thomas Vang (Oscar Peterson, Randy Brecker). Mastered in Svenska Grammofonstudion with Hans Olsson Brookes (Graveyard, Blues Pills, José González). « Into The Long Night » will be available on orange transparent vinyl, black vinyl, CD and digital.

THE SONIC DAWN is a trip – a psychedelic blend of styles, from jazzy sitar pop to heavy acid rock. The Copenhagen trio offers melodic songs infused with a ’60s West Coast flavor, laced with dreamy vocals and delivered with an explosive stage presence. Since the release of their acclaimed debut « Perception » in 2015 (Nasoni Records), the Danish rockers have been caught on several European tours, which highlight was the Freak Valley Festival’s opening in 2016, who had them sharing the stage with Graveyard and White Hills. This year again, they are confirmed to play the best venues and festivals, such as Liverpool Psych Fest.

To achieve the dramatic changes of mood and feeling that THE SONIC DAWN excel at, they mix a wide range of styles, from jazzy sitar pop to heavy acid rock. A pleasant-sounding analog production makes the album easy to approach, not to water it down, but rather to pull the unsuspecting listener into the deep.

The songs were written by day and recorded at night, during a month of complete isolation in a remote house by The North Sea. The track listing can be interpreted as a trip through the night, into a new dawn. Close your eyes and see it… Go through the hill country with its long yellow grass, to the beach where the setting sun dances on the cold waves. Slide into the darkest hours, alone with your thoughts and doubts. Suddenly come the first blue rays, separating past from present, before a golden dawn is born and everything takes its right shape, perhaps for the very first time…
