Afenginn

Photo: Rune Backs

Afenginn means intoxication and strength in Old Norse! And it is a name of an exciting band from Denmark. Their homebrewed and unique style is categorized as Bastard-Punk-Ethno, with a sigh of Nordic melancholy and a twist of cheerful madness.

Afenginn's musical universe can be described as an exciting blend of Slavic Eastern Europe, odd Balkan meters, the speed of klezmer, insane polkas, rock´n´roll feel and classical composition. It’s a twilight zone, where you also find Tom Waits, Gogol Bordello and Kaizers Orchestra.

Reviews:

“They‘re shockingly good, with imagination and technique that won‘t quit. If there‘s justice, they‘ll be huge”.
fROOTS, March 2006

“Probably the best balkan-rockers in Scandinavia”
Alex Regnér, Musiklandet (Sweden)

Afenginn are:
Rasmus Krøyer - clarinet, Niels Skovmand - violin, Kim Nyberg - mandolin, mandocello, Aske Jacoby – bass, Rune Kofoed - drums, percussion
