Kakkmaddafakka project anthemic melancholy on ‘The Rest’ [IAI Premiere]

Lifted from their upcoming fifth LP ‘Diplomacy’, Norwegian indie-rock sextet Kakkmaddafakka releases ‘The Rest’, through which they address the gradual deterioration of a relationship.

With striking comparisons to the swooning nature of The War On Drugs, ‘The Rest’ is a more wistful development of the six-piece’s signature sound. Produced by Matias Tellez (Young Dreams), the new single features swaying ensembles of instrumentation and thick harmonies, held together in a focused and cohesive style.


Frontman Axel Vindenes expands on the themes of the new single; “‘The Rest’ explores the dynamic between two people in a romantic relationship and the transitions that happen over a long period of time; from the honeymoon period to the comfort that inevitably develops and the constant push and pull between intimacy and distance.”


‘The Rest’ will be out on all platforms 8th March 2019 and the band’s fifth full-length ‘Diplomacy’ lands on 22nd March 2019 via Bergen Mafia Records.
