Drama – of the interpersonal kind – that’s what Hajk are about on their upcoming album. The band burst onto the Norwegian scene with their self-titled debut album, garnering broad appreciation way outside of their home country. Now, the highly anticipated follow-up is near – a record that both pulls at the heartstrings and urges you to dance.
“Breathe”, the third and final single from the upcoming album, is a soaring, emotional R&B-tinged track. The huge chorus instantly infects your brain and will not let go, with Sigrid Aase’s powerful vocals being the main focal point throughout.
With the sophomore album, Drama, a more confident band is on display. Sharpened by more studio experience, they have once again produced the record themselves. Blending analog and digital sounds, switching between programmed arrangements and live takes from the studio, drawing on three lead vocalists and several guest musicians, Hajk has done whatever necessary to fulfill their creative vision.
The title Drama relates to the drama of humanity and a somewhat naïve yearning for love in a world in which love sometimes seems scarce.
It’s been a while since the band recorded the songs for their debut album, and you can hear that they’re eager to get going. This time they are taking the sound of their debut a few notches further. We get the simple but grand ballads and we get the catchy up-tempo pop songs. In short, drama.
