Monday's Long Song



Papir, a three-piece instrumental band from Copenhagen, has been featured here several times before. That hasn't changed with the release of their latest album IX a few days ago. They remain true to their minimalism by not giving album titles and songs names and simply numbering them. 

The fact that it contains no lyrics, but thrives solely on the pulse, form, atmosphere, and texture of their instrumental collaboration, actually fits very well into the picture: a bold move in times of market saturation and thousands of bands writing all kinds of things on their gigantic sails.

They continue to move between krautrock, psychedelic rock, and instrumental jams with jazzy influences. The fact that they can't manage to write “proper” songs doesn't matter as long as they can maintain this level of quality.
