About the release:
Norwegian folk electronica quartet Flunk is a collective enterprise
consisting of producer Ulf Nygard, a member of Oslo pop outfit, Folk
and Rovere, guitarist Jo Bakke, formerly of renowned Norwegian band
the Happy Campers, drummer Erik Ruud who along with Bakke make up
Guidance house act Antenna and medical student/vocalist
extraordinaire, Anja Oyen Vister. Although the band was originally
conceived by Nygaard as an escape from the rigors of producing music,
numerous lazy late night jam sessions fueled by beer and Indian take
away led to the accidental recording of a handful of timeless tracks
that defined the Flunk Sound. Realizing they had a good thing going,
the band decided to forge ahead with the recording of an album and
the world is truly a better place for it. Flunk's debut long player
"For Sleepyheads Only" is a stylish electronic pop love affair where
folksy guitar driven down tempo grooves mesh with ethereal new wave
synth soundscapes to provide a blissful backdrop for Anja's sun
kissed vocal stylings. The end result is a sublimely beautiful album
of finely crafted folk electronica served with just the right dose of
indie rock attitude. Originally issued on Norwegian imprint Beat
Service, "For Sleepyheads Only" has already received rave reviews
from the European press. The record was selected as album of the
month in DJ Magazine's July 2002 issue and received a glowing review
in Muzik Magazine which proclaimed it "Cool Yet Incendiary" and
likened the record to the classic works from Bjork and Massive
Attack. London's Radio One recently flew the band in to do a Live
broadcast on their nationally syndicated chill out show the Blue Room
and the group has spent the summer performing at Clubs and Festivals
across Europe and the UK. "For Sleepyheads Only" will receive a
proper domestic release on Oct 29 and the band will be gracing our
shores for the first time this winter when they embark on a live
North American tour in support of the album.
