How do you describe a band like Demdike Stare? To say that their music is darkly atmospheric would be an understatement. To say that it is electronic would be misleading. To say that it is music, in the way that most people conceive of it, at all may be looking at things the wrong way around altogether. Their collation of otherworldly sampling and offbeat programming is the soundtrack to a horror movie that is happening not on the cinema screen but inside your head as the sounds this duo create drive you slowly insane as you lie next to your record player in a darkened room.

It's always a risky strategy to release a covers album, which is exactly what this first release in four years is. Some people would swat it away as “lazy songwriting”, and what if the songs are beloved pieces of beauty that should never have been messed with in the first place? What if it's the exact opposite? What if the songs chosen are rubbish and the sight of them on an album by someone else is still just cause to not buy them again? The thing I respect about this particular album though, above all else, is that this is an album the band just wanted to make because they like the songs, and hope the general public do too. That's it. No other reason, and I must admit, the songs chosen are by and large, pretty good. After all, the subtitle to the album is “What we did on our Summer Vacation”, which translates as “We're having some fun here and just fancy playing some music without having to take it too seriously.”
