Afenginn

Band, *2002 DK
Folk, World and Rock

Afenginn, which means intoxication and strength in old norse, is a contemporary folk/world music band formed in Copenhagen in 2002.The group is inquisitive, playful and imaginative and takes an anarchic approach to traditional musical structures. Their compositions range from lyrical, picturesque and programme music-like pieces to jagged up-tempo numbers in odd time signatures, always with the special rhythmic and melodic finesse which characterizes Afenginn. Their own term for the band’s musical style is "Bastard Ethno".Their 5th album LUX is emphasizing the lyrical aerial beauty of light.
