Alcoholic Faith Mission- 'Ask Me This'

This March 27th Danish sextet, Alcoholic Faith Mission will release their new album, Ask Me This here in the U.S. & Canada. The band completed the new LP last fall with producer Tom McFall (REM, Stars, Weezer). Though the members hail from Denmark, the band was actually formed in Brooklyn in 2006 by high school friends Thorben Jensen and Sune Sølund. When the pals stumbled upon Brooklyn’s Apostolic Faith Mission Church, they reasoned that alcohol was as necessary an elixir as religion is for the pious. Thus, their own Alcoholic Faith Mission came to be.
Check out the great track, "Running with Insanity" off the LP below.

get to know: Alcoholic Faith Mission

Like a lot of bands, Alcoholic Faith Mission, who hail from Denmark, came to Brooklyn and recorded their debut disc, Misery Loves Company back in 2006. Apparently enjoying the experience so much the band returned two years later and secluded themselves in an old factory loft in Williamsburg, the result of which is the hauntingly beautiful, 421 Wythe Avenue, named after their recording space. Mixing male & female vocal harmonies, over sweeping atmospheric synths, piano, acoustic guitars and even horns the band can keep you guessing from one track to the next. One of the highlights of the disc that was released back in 2009 is the tune "Nut In Your Eye" (check out the video below) which gives you a nice feel for the bands style. Plans are already in the works for a new album titled, Let This Be The Last Night We Care, and we'll keep you posted as to a release date when it becomes available.

"We All Have Shortcomings"
