About
Yndi Halda are a post rock band from Kent whose name, Old Norse for "Enjoy Eternal Bliss", tells you plenty about the scale of what they do. Their music leans into sweeping strings, multi part vocal harmonies and the kind of slow build crescendos that make an hour feel like ten minutes. Their debut recording, also called Enjoy Eternal Bliss, was self released in 2006 and ran for over an hour despite officially being billed as an EP. It earned them comparisons to Mogwai, Godspeed You! Black Emperor and Sigur Rós, which is fair company to keep. After nearly a decade away, they came back in 2016 with Under Summer, an album that pushed vocals and songwriting further to the front than their largely instrumental debut had. They followed it with the EP A Sun Coloured Shaker in 2018, which later got a remix treatment from New York electronic artist Prefuse73. Six members strong, the band mixes guitars, violin, bass, keyboards and drums into compositions that sit comfortably across post rock and modern classical.
