a while back we wrote that alcoholic faith mission was the only band you needed to listen to. After playing with them, and experiencing their utter danish awesomeness in person, capslock can vouch that this is still true. although they’re back in europe now, they documented the us part of their tour with an awesome old camera. if you are in denmark this summer, you should go see these photogenic musicians. duh.

Admittedly I found myself, more than once, getting all Thoreau-esque and contemplating a much simpler existence in the wilderness. Alas, the modern conveniences of life are all too near and dear to my heart (case in point: I did some binge online shopping promptly upon my return) Still, there was something exhilarating (dare I say magical?) about my days spent in the woods. I think I might even return.
