Considered to be the first punk band out of Denmark, Sort Sol released a series of seminal singles and albums throughout a rather long tenure, only calling it quits in 2003 after a marginal breakthrough in their home country.<\/p>\n<p>The band was rhythmic and jagged, often to unsettling ends. Under their original name, the Sods, the band released two records- 1979&#8217;s <em>Minutes to Go<\/em> and 1980&#8217;s <em>Under en Sort Sol<\/em>, soon after switching their name to Sort Sol proper for the remainder of their career. British underground greats 4AD quickly re-released their first record, and put out a single featuring two songs from <em>Under en Sort Sol<\/em>, which helped to kick the band off to greater heights. Recording with no-wave legend Lydia Lunch soon after also worked wonders for their exposure&#8230;and the band continued on to record seven more records before their hiatus.<\/p>\n<p>Since these popped on random during this morning&#8217;s routine, I&#8217;ve uploaded two of my favorite tracks from <em>Under en Sort Sol<\/em> for your listening pleasure&#8230;without any further ado:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.divshare.com\/download\/1227795-4df\">download Sort Sol- &#8216;Misguided&#8217;<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.divshare.com\/download\/1227798-69e\">download Sort Sol- &#8216;Roller Ball&#8217;<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Most of the band&#8217;s material is currently out of print, but should you find a Import CD or a LP record, snap it right up!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I might have another post up my sleeve for later today, but first things first, this entry will feature Danish post-punk greats Sort Sol.
