2020

Doomsday Preppers is back with their second outing “2020”. With ten fresh compositions from all of the members, the band continues to explore an acoustic quartet format. Since their debut album “Helter Shelter” (2018), Doomsday has toured extensively, and the recording contains a particularly fine tuned ensemble. From Bjørgo´s “Øks og Pokal” to Köster’s “Kontrabass Etüde nr. 31”, the band brings together seemingly unlikely sources of inspiration, effortlessly combining 1930’s jazz and Scandinavian indie-jazz, and everything in between. “2020” is an honest album from the band that thought they were prepared.
