Abel & Sef & Iceland - Iceland 2 (LP)

A pie in the face to make a political statement, or needlessly spoil some traditional Dutch coziness. The long-awaited ICELAND 2 comes out on February 6th.

ICELAND isn't a country, it's a supergroup. Sef and Abel find each other, repel each other, and find each other again like charged particles, resulting in a series of nuclear explosions.

Purely on instinct, IJSLAND 2, like its predecessor, was thrown together in a week. Once again, produced entirely by Antwerp superproducer DJ Faisxl, IJSLAND's fifth Beatle. IJSLAND 2 demands that you sit on the edge of your seat for almost 50 minutes. It demands that you laugh, cry, and scream. The record is about terror, cake, conspiracies, and disappointment. Under the motto "more is more," it doesn't hesitate to mix genres head-on. Ultimately, this results in an album that can be described as intense, complex, and overwhelming, a reflection of the times we live in. The cover image was taken by the photography duo Scheltens & Abbenes.
