More Kings

In 2004, The D Man and Barndog listened to Erlend and Eirek with a few dozen others at Brothers on High Street in Columbus. One of the most captivating live performances I've ever seen. Do yourself a favor over the weekend and pick up the duo's latest album. The remaining days of autumn will be that much more brilliant.

Enjoy a recent sit-down with the coolest Norwegians on the planet. They play the beautiful "24-25," the opening track from Declaration of Dependence. And keep your fingers crossed that they come to the States again.


BONUS: Lest you forget, Erlend is also the funkiest white person alive. His DJ Kicks album may be the best electronic album you've never listened to and his aptly-named (other) band has kicked out two fantastic dance-influenced guitar records.
