Danish band Efterklang will be releasing the follow up to their 2004 debut Tripper with a second album, Parades, due out on 15 October on Leaf. The album follows the magnificent mini album Under Giant Trees released earlier this year. While Under Giant Trees was conceived while the band was touring, Parades is the fruit of eighteen months of recording and involved more than thirty guest musicians, including a string quartet, a brass quintet and three separate choirs.

The band have this video teaser which uses one of the tracks of the album, Horseback Tenors. The video is directed by Conkerco.

Efterklang, augmented with three additional members, will be undertaking a world tour this autumn which is due to continue at least until summer 2008.
