Alcoholic Faith Mission

Alcoholic Faith Mission is a five piece from Copenhagen that started out as only two, Thorben Seierø Jensen and Sune Sølund. To date the band has three albums, each of which had it’s own set of rules that had to be used during recording. For 2006′s Misery Loves Company, the album was entirely recorded late at night in the bedroom of a tiny Copenhagen flat lit only by candlelight, along with improvised percussion and drinking requirements. 2009′s 421 Wythe Avenue was recorded during a 6 month span in a Brooklyn factory loft that bared the address of the album. For this recording the rule was set down that they were only allowed to use things that they found within the four walls of the flat to compose every track.

The sound that they’re producing is hard to categorize. It move from melancholy in “Sobriety Up And Left” to pop rock as in “Got Love? Got Shellfish?” Either way you like it you’ll find it here.
