Written while living in London, the Copenhagen-based songwriter and producer spent weeks cutting up copies of Metro — one of the city’s free newspapers — to form the lyrical foundation of the songs. In makeshift studios, he began bringing these ideas to life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhere GB’s debut record was shrouded in a downtempo haze, \u003cem\u003eHerzsprung\u003c\/em\u003e creates a distinct sound that pushes outward: something more melodic, more full-throated, and more assured. The album draws together a wide spectrum of influences; from the groove-driven fusion jazz of the 1970s to Japanese noise-rock psychedelia, anthemic grunge, and outsider pop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are traces of the alt-pop qualities that GB shares with his Copenhagen peers, but you hear London’s influence too, an urge to stretch rock tradition and break with form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter finding himself improbably cast in a viral Jaguar ad in 2024, he used the money to book out a studio villa in the Swedish wilderness, joined by a band of trusted musicians. Over the course of a week, the songs — which had previously existed as memos and notebook scribbles — took full shape through live performance and collective instinct.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTracked largely live to 24-track tape, the result is a record that feels immediate and playful in its execution. It captures the chemistry of an uncompromising band brimming with ideas and welcoming spontaneity. \u003cem\u003eHerzsprung\u003c\/em\u003e sifts through the past and present with urgency, cutting it open so that the future leaks out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the record's climax, “Shit River”, GB is backed by a full choir as he screams for \"someplace beaming with more colors”. “..and everything in between collapsed, rushing floods of insignificance”.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlack vinyl version.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdrenaline\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIf Only You’re Still Around\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Next Day\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStarsound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBelly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePipe Dream (ft.
