Piramida

Piramida (meaning "the pyramid") is the name of a small Russian town in Spitsbergen. It's also the upcoming album from Efterklang... featuring some nice artwork by Danish design studio Hvass&Hannibal:





The band spent nine days in the ghost town of Piramida (the mining settlement was abruptly abandoned in January 1998), recording sound samples which they’ve pieced together for their new album.

The video for Hollow Mountain (loving the reference to the empty mine!), created and directed by Jakob Steen and Christoffer Frandsen, mixes photos the band took while on their trip with elements created by Hvass&Hannibal:
