DAUFØDT release album “Glitter” via Fysisk Format Records

Daufødt release their third studio album "Glitter" on Fysisk Format. Glitter, not as in glitz and glam, but like the kind that doesn’t go away, that sticks. "‘Glitter’ is the sound of being hit by a brick, but in a way that makes you look forward to the next blow." Says the band.

This album is Daufødt’s assessment of 2024 from a young adult’s perspective. It’s a desperate cry about the end of times while watching videos of cute dogs. A new seriousness that comes with age, when critical thinking is fully developed, and nightmare fantasies about everything that can go wrong, because things have gone wrong, run rampant. "Music for the end times – when everything goes to hell, at least you can have a good soundtrack." the band adds. 

The album spans from radio-friendly rock hits and minute-long punk songs to nine-minute-long noise rock jams – evidence of a band in constant evolution. While its predecessor, the Lasse Marhaug collaboration "Aromaterapi," was a violent and experimental release, "Glitter" has a punchier and more direct sound. The Daufødt signature mix of catchier rock references and extreme noise elements is, of course, present and more refined than ever. In other words, "Glitter" is catchy, brutal music for the end of the world. They say: "Our most important goal when writing songs and making music is to avoid OUR BIGGEST FEAR: making the same album again. Thankfully, ‘Glitter’ meets this goal. The album is rather a summary of our motto: recognizable, but unpredictable."

Daufødt consists of vocalist and designer Annika Linn Verdal Homme, bassist Eskild Myrvoll, guitarist Eirik Albrethsen Reithaug, and drummer Mads Antonsen Gerzić and one of the highest points of their still young career was when they won the Spellemann Award in 2021 for their debut album "1000 Island." 
The band's second album, "Aromaterapi," was released in 2022 and since then, they have toured Scandinavia multiple times and played numerous festivals, including Roskilde and Øyafestivalen.
